Before each run, from 8:00 – 8:50, Natazha Bernie will provide core conditioning workouts in the handball court.  Natazha is a physical therapist with 20 years experience teaching Pilates and yoga. Email Natazha Bernie at natazha.bernie[at]gmail.com  if you plan to join us for any of these Fort Point Runs.
