KIDS RUNNING CLUB- THE PINK KOALAS now in season and accepting new runners

Natural Strides is the new place for the Barefoot Runner.  Whether you are a “tenderfoot” newbie or have been running barefoot for 25 years, this store is for you.  We are born barefoot and have evolved to be barefoot, so to run barefoot is a great goal.  But ,for those of us who have spent a lifetime in high heeled cushioned shoes, the transition requires caution and takes time.   For all those who want the benefits of the barefoot lifestyle but need shoes for social or work reasons, we carry barefoot-style casual and walking shoes. We offer free gait analysis and ChiRunning and ChiWalking instruction. See our Instruction link for more details on classes.

Certified ChiRunning instructor Greg Scott with his knowledgeable staff can help you find the shoe to fit your needs on trails, road, in the gym, or for a walk.  New shoes are coming in weekly along with brands and styles that can’t be found in box stores.
