Testimonials

“The flying feeling was really fun and not something I had felt since I was a kid!”

“Amy, Just a note to tell you how much I enjoyed the workshop. I truly believe this technique will get me back to running and 5Ks.”

“Thank you for the fast turn around on the video.  You did an awesome job Saturday!  After I got back home,  I tried to put some of it in action;  I went on a five mile run.  I felt a little bit of the pull and pain in my achilles tendons and calves.  Then I read your corrective actions last night and put them to work today during lunch and I not only have no pain, I think the tendons feel better than they did before I ran.”

“Amy, Thanks for the workshop! I actually just got back from a run in my neighborhood tonight and it was my best run ever!  I was able to run longer than I ever have in previous runs, so obviously I did learn quite a bit from the workshop!  I was afraid I was not going to be able to implement the tips you gave us due to my frustrations with my shins. However, I actually ran with much less pain this evening and got excited about running again.  Thank you!! I  also just bought the Chi running book today that you told us about during the workshop.  I hope to read it, practice some more, and then if you are willing to work with me again I would like to attend another workshop to work more on perfecting the correct posture and strike.  You are a great and extremely patient instructor!  I appreciate that!

“Your class today was fantastic.”

Hey Amy! The running is going great.  I’ve really seen a difference after implementing Chi running.  I’ve had no back pain and relatively no soreness after each run.  Yesterday, I tackled the hills of Ballantyne (aptly called “The Soul Crusher”) and felt very happy with my performance (thanks to those 45 degree arms!)  I’m still slower than my average but I’m okay with that. Right now, my main focus is on the alignment and keeping my arms by my sides.  I’m really excited and can’t wait to continue with the progress.” 

“Thanks again for your good coaching. I have walked a couple of times at 1/2 hour and once for 1 hours (a little calf soreness, but not bad). The shorter walks left me with NO lower back pain, NO breathlessness, and NO calf soreness. They were GREAT. I feel that you’ve given me the tools for a life change — back to regular exercise, pain-free. I’m still working on maintaining focus, but everything seems  to be working together.  Thanks again.”

“You have truly made a difference in my long term health and I am forever grateful!”

“Hello Amy, Your instruction has really paid off.  I ran 6.07 miles yesterday which is a new record for me.  Of course, pain free and with a reasonable amount of energy used.  Chi Running has given me the confidence for my Tough Mudder training that I will be able to finish it from a cardio standpoint.  The obstacles are another story!  I cannot thank you enough for transforming my poor running technique into an efficient and effective form.  I still find that sometimes I fall into bad habits (dropping my arms, not leaning forward enough) but am able to recognize it immediate and make the necessary corrections. Wishing you the best!”
