What is the POSE Method?
The POSE Method is a system for teaching human movement developed by 2-time Olympic
Coach Dr. Nicholas Romanov. The name of the method comes from the word “pose,” or “body
position.” During movement, the body passes through an infinite number of positions. Most of
the positions (or poses) are transitional movements and are the result, not the cause, of proper
positioning. The ability of certain poses to integrate the whole chain of preceding and subsequent
movements into one whole, wasting no energy on inconsequential movement laid the foundation
of the POSE Method.
What can it do for you?
The POSE Method can be applied to any human movement. In sports, application of the POSE
Method can dramatically improve training and racing performance, help prevent injuries and
give a competitive edge. The first POSE Technique was made available to the general public,
published for the first time in Russia in 1981, in 1997 and was the first official and complete
running technique on the market. With a number of running styles available today, the Pose
Method of Running is currently the only method for teaching running technique and the only
running technique in the world scientifically proven to reduce impact on the knees by 50 percent.
