Life Balance on the Road
Seattle

Champion cyclist and duathlete Tim Becker has invited Life Balance Sports to bring a little midwestern flair to the Seattle MultiSport Training Center. Don't worry, Coach Gina and all of Life Balance Sports services are still available in the Heartland!

Here's the scoop: During a training run on a southern California beach, Tim and Gina discovered that their individual coaching practices would compliment each other well. A few brainstorming sessions later, Seattle MultiSport and Life Balance Sports have teamed up to bring Coach Gina's signature targeted training to the great northwest.  

2009 Seattle dates:

January 17th through 25th

For coaching, bicycle fitting, and training at your location, contact Gina for appointments and information.   

 Stay tuned for updates!

 

San Diego

Coach Gina spent a beautiful November week in San Diego at John Howard Performance Sports doing a little teaching and a lot of learning. The learning portion included training on Dynamic Motion Therapy™ principles and techniques with Dr. Ernie Ferrel, US Olympic team physician and co-developer of the FiTTE System.  DMT™ is one of the most effective deep tissue techniques for breaking down scar tissue/adhesions and restoring function and movement. After a lot of work, a little fun rounded out the week as you'll see below:

Back in our own "neck 'o the woods," a little cyclocross racing broke out on a snowy December day just north of Kansas City.
