Yoga for Runners: Foot Stability, Mobility, and Strength

Work on fine-tuning the stability, mobility, and strength of your feet and hips in this yoga for runners class. You’ll begin with a self-massage practice for your feet. From there, you’ll move into shin massages using a ball and block and range-of-motion exercises, including ankle rolls and toe lifts. Finally, you’ll practice calf raises and clam shells (resistance squats using a band) to help build strength throughout your legs.

Enjoy this feel-good practice designed to bring you ease on your runs.
