Slowing Down to Run Faster Book<br> A Sense-able Approach to Movement

by Edward Yu Drawing from the principles of Feldenkrais, Baqua and Tai Chi, Edward Yu presents an innovative approach to running: power, speed, and agility Why does trying harder sometimes become an exercise in futility? Why does following “expert advice” often lead to little or no improvement? What if there were an efficient way of learning that could be applied to every area of human experience? Feldenkrais practitioner, martial artist and former triathlete shows you how to achieve the results you want with a new multidisciplinary approach that emphasizes your ability to sense your own body rather than willpower or raw talent. Centering the art of running as an explorative, creative, and somatic-based practice, Yu shows us how to run faster by learning to become more sensible–that is, more sense-able–through the playful and systematic exploration of movement. A prior edition of Yu's book had been self published. This new expanded edition was taken on by North Atlantic books,
