What clients say about Amy...

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

~ SB, Charlotte

“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.”

~ Lloyd E, Greenville

“ChiRunning has enabled me to run without knee pain -even after my knee surgery!”

~ Lynn G. Charlotte,  NC

“I went out with my dog yesterday for a longer run in our neighborhood (a little under 6 miles…lots of hills).  I usually run for the first 2 miles, then walk/run the remainder.  Yesterday, I ran the entire time and felt great! Nearly 3 times the distance the first time out using the chi techniques!!  And, the best part: I felt *graceful*.  I have NEVER in my life felt graceful!!  It almost felt like I was floating.  I’m so excited about my new “practice”! So, on Saturday, when I said I wasn’t a runner….can I change my answer to “I am a CHI RUNNER”!  Thanks so much for your teachings and support!  I’m SOLD!!”

~ Karen L., Waxhaw, NC

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.”

“I had a great time and the class helped me so so much…thank you! Chi on ;-)”

~ Maha

“Thanks, Amy.  Seeing the video was really helpful. When I did my workout tonight, I really focused on keeping my stride much smaller and having my legs land right underneath my body and my arms going back instead of reaching forward. I went much slower, but it felt really good.  I ran 8 minutes, then walked 2 and repeated that 4 times, and for the first time ever, at the end of the running segments, instead of feeling like I was going to collapse, I felt like if I had needed to keep running, instead of walking, I could have done it.  That was amazing!”

~ Alison R. Charlotte, NC

Thank you so much for the clinic. I went for a run Saturday and was amazed at what a difference the chi principal made. I know it will take more practice, but I am very excited about the possibilities. I look forward to getting feedback from the video.

~ Karen K. Charlotte, NC

“Amy,  thank you!!!  I have been running again for the first time in a long time and I have to say I am very excited.  I will definitely keep you recommendations in mind.  I appreciate you taking the time to follow up – I know how important time is these days…… Great class!!!”

~ Diane, Charlotte, NC

“My back does not hurt anymore when I run!!!”

~ Elizabeth D.  Charlotte, NC
