Complementing running with a regular yoga practice can help prevent injuries by stretching out tight overused muscles, restoring balance and increasing flexibility. Our Yoga for Runners Series address the stretches needed after a run though patterns of movement that support the subtle body and help to reduce congestion that can build up in connective tissue from running.
