The Pose Method is a running program that uses video analysis to determine key "poses" where the running form is optimized for performance and reduced injury. The poses vertically align the shoulders, hips and ankles on the support leg, while landing on the forefoot (ball of the foot). This simple sequence of movements: the fall and the pull, while staying in the "pose" position, is the essence of the running technique to maximize efficiency. The Pose Method is an essential program for runners at all levels to go faster and farther without injury.1
The Pose Method of running allows one to identify and promote a running form that maximizes gravity along with the body's effort and stored energy (elasticity) to create efficient movement. In essence, it makes running easier and less physically stressful to the body.1
Proper technique is the cornerstone of every sports discipline or any other activity that involves human movement: dancing, ballet, martial arts, tennis, etc. Running is no different. Learning the correct running Pose is just as important as having a stable position for an overhead squat, or proper asana in yoga. So in order to run faster, run longer, avoid injuries & reduce impact on your body – you need to improve your technique.2
