Instructors:

Sher Martelle is a Canadian trained Registered Massage Therapist (2200 hrs), and an avid half marathoner. She practices Clinical Massage Therapy at Sutherland Chan Centre Hong Kong.

Therapeutic massage can play an important part in a training regimen. Lengthening muscles between runs can dramatically reduce delayed onset muscle soreness. Common recurring injuries can easily & economically be treated using ice or heat. All of this gets you back on the road sooner.

Linda Shevloff is a certified Iyengar teacher with over twenty years of experience. She owns and operates The Iyengar yoga Centre of Hong Kong.

Iyengar Yoga's emphasis on proper alignment ensures joints and muscles are in correct relation to one another. Strength and flexibility can be developed without any part of the body experiencing undue stress. When the body functions with balance and
efficiency, performance is optimized.
