Founders of NYC Barefoot Runners, John and Maggie Durant, have turned their fun run and cabaret of barefoot running education into an annual event – doubling in size from the 1st Annual NYC Barefoot Run.

You can now sign up for our week-long intensive Training Clinic Coaching Program to become a barefoot running coach.

It is a well-known fact that 80% of runners are injured every year. This coaching program aims to spread injury-free running by diagnosing and correcting running form.

There are only a couple of spaces left in October’s course (based in London) so register now before it’s too late.

Led  by leading biomechanics expert, Lee Saxby, the Training Clinic Coaching Program will train you how to teach the skill of barefoot running,  expand your knowledge of evolutionary biomechanics, fully explain the importance of proprioception and give you the opportunity to become a VIVOBAREFOOT Certified Coach.

All certificates are signed by Daniel Lieberman – Professor of Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University.

For a full list of upcoming Coaching Program dates and to book your place, please visit the booking page on the VIVOBAREFOOT Training Clinic website.
