Learn the skill of barefoot walking and running with Terra Plana
| 13th August 2010 |
Learn the skill of barefoot walking and running at "The Barefoot Experience" Terra Plana, 36 Kings Road, London SW3.
Spearheaded by new research and the international bestseller "Born to Run" the ‘barefoot movement' is gathering pace. London's first Barefoot Experience is dedicated to helping people rediscover natural movement, and better health, from the feet up.
In January 2010 Professor Dan Lieberman of Harvard University released his seminal research on the benefits of barefoot and the dangers of normal padded running shoes (Nature Magazine, "Tread Softly") adding to a number of other scientific studies showing how underfoot shoe technologies are doing more harm than good.
Terra Plana are creators of Vivobarefoot, the original barefoot shoe, with a patented ultra thin puncture resistant sole that gives all the benefits of being barefoot with protection.
Now Terra Plana are proud to announce our first public workshops, to learn the key to injury free barefoot running & walking. These sessions are available on a "first come, first served" basis and are free of charge.
Classes last for 1.5 hours, 6 places are available at each session; participants will be filmed on the instore treadmill (allowing each person to see improvements in technique).
Walking classes are available on Monday August 16th & Wednesday August 18th.
Running classes are available on Wednesday August 25th & Saturday August 28th.
Classes will run at the following times on each day: 10 - 11.30am, 11.30 - 1.00pm, 2 - 3.30pm, 3.30 - 5.00pm, 5.00 - 6.30pm.
Classes will be conducted by Tony Riddle. Tony is a highly respected international running coach and numbers premier league footballers amongst his clients. Tony was trained by and works closely with, leading barefoot running expert, Lee Saxby; he is a qualified POSE level 2 instructor.
