Yesterday Mark attended a running coaching clinic to train existing running coaches new skills and techniques inline with the Newton running company's philosophy of Natural Running. It was the first clinic of this type to be held outside of the USA. Mark was lucky enough to pass and is now only 1 of 12 Newton Natural Running Form coaches in the UK. Mark will now add those new skills & techniques to south Wales and incorporate them into our own hugely successful Learn To Run workshops.




sportman Sports massage tends to be a deeper and more intense form of massage. It is based on the various elements of Swedish massage and often incorporates a combination of other techniques involving stretching, compression, friction, toning, and trigger point response techniques similar to Acupressure and Shiatsu. The skilled therapist brings together this blend of techniques, knowledge and advice during treatment, to work effectively with the client to bring about optimum performance and to provide injury-free training and minimise post event injuries.
