Vivo Barefoot, the great "barefoot" shoe company, recently came out with an instructional barefoot running video. The teacher in the video, Lee Saxby, is a Level 4 Pose running instructor based out of England. I have heard a lot about him through the Pose running message boards, and he is an incredible teacher.
In the video he shows how form improves by merely removing cushy running sneakers, but that poor form can still exist even when barefoot. After a few drills to correct postural alignment, the runner in the video notices how much more easy and fun running is. It almost becomes effortless when you really get in the zone. Effortless running? Sign me up.
The slow motion examples in the video are great, and be sure to look how the hips land above the ball of the foot. If you're looking to learn barefoot running or Pose running in the NYC area, I offer both group clinics as well as one-on-one lessons. I l
