Your Instructor
Michael Levack - Owner of The Running School Austria
Michael has more than 20 years of experience as a sports physiotherapist and has specialized in running technique and biomechanics since 2017. He gained his in-depth knowledge at the renowned Running and Movement School in London and founded Running School Austria in Lower Austria in 2019.
Over the years, Michael has developed a highly trained eye for real-time movement analysis. This ability, refined through countless hours of hands-on practice, allows him to quickly identify even the smallest inefficiencies in running technique. As a result, he can provide precise, individualized feedback that accelerates his clients’ progress and significantly reduces the risk of injury.
He has also trained extensively with Kelly Starrett from The Ready State to master advanced mobility and treatment techniques. In addition, he works closely with his colleagues at The Foot Collective to further deepen his expertise in foot and ankle health as well as breathing mechanics. This holistic approach ensures that his clients not only perform better but also stay healthier in the long term.
Michael works with people of all ages—from 8 to 80 years old, from complete beginners to elite athletes. Whether the goal is to overcome injuries or to unlock the final 1% of performance, Michael provides comprehensive, world-class support for anyone looking to improve their running technique and movement quality.
