Learn how to integrate injury-resistant running technique and biomechanics into your coaching business—whether you want to supplement what you already do or make biomechanics a central focus of your coaching.
The Whyte Rabbit Method Affiliate Coach Program is designed for coaches who are ready to challenge the modern injury cycle and help runners adopt simple, anti-fragile running technique.
Over 15 years ago, I had a massive paradigm shift that not only took me from a slow, chronically injured runner with terrible form who could barely run a mile to a pain free barefoot ultramarathoner in less than a year. I immediately began applying these principles to my runners and was recruited to start multiple running clinics with the likes of Harvard University and others. Â
After over 20 years as a physical therapist working with hundreds of runners, the results have been staggering. But it's just a drop in the bucket. I am beyond frustrated watching runners in the mainstream community become MORE dependent on:
We're doubling down on the wrong things. The proof is in the pudding. We have more tech, programs, and interventions than ever...and our injury rates are at 80% per year. That's higher than gymnastics or football. Makes zero sense for an activity we were literally born to do.
So I stripped the noise away.
I took what consistently worked biomechanically, removed the unnecessary complexity, codified it into a clear system, and built a method focused specifically on injury-free running technique and biomechanics.
This is not about adding more.
It’s about removing interference so the body can move the way it was designed to move.
And yes—this includes barefoot training and strong advocacy for minimalist footwear when footwear is called for. The Whyte Rabbit stance is that footwear is for protection, not correction, and that form is more important than footwear.
This program is not designed for everyone.
WRM is best suited for coaches, runners, athletes, and health and fitness professionals who are open to challenging mainstream assumptions about running, injury, and biomechanics.
This is NOT the right fit if:
WRM strongly advocates for minimalist footwear principles, barefoot training concepts, and rebuilding more natural running mechanics.
That conversation can challenge deeply ingrained beliefs in the modern running world.
You do not need to agree with every idea immediately.
But you DO need to be open-minded enough to explore the conversation honestly.
The coaches who thrive inside WRM tend to be:
This is not about creating dependence.
It’s about helping runners rediscover what the human body was capable of long before modern running culture complicated it.
If you believe runners deserve another conversation…
welcome to the rabbit hole.
You already coach runners—or plan to.
WRM becomes a biomechanics and running technique resource your runners move through while YOU continue focusing on whatever you specialize in:
In this model:
This creates an additional value-add for both your coaching business and your runners without requiring you to become a full-time biomechanics specialist.
You want biomechanics and injury-free running technique to become a central focus of your coaching.
This path is for coaches who want to go deeper into:
The goal is not to create robotic runners obsessed with endless cueing and analysis.
The goal is to simplify movement, restore efficient mechanics, and remove unnecessary interference.
You will receive access to the exact course your runners go through so you can:
I’ve already done the hard part.
I’ve stripped the complexity out and organized the system into a clear, teachable progression.
No endless biomechanical jargon.
No overwhelming analysis paralysis.
No unnecessary fluff.
Just the meat and taters.
In addition to the runner course, coaches receive exclusive training covering:
You’ll also receive:
And importantly, I’ll help support your runners too.
That creates a major value-add for your business while helping runners feel supported throughout the process.
Affiliate Coaches receive:
Commissions are paid after the 30-day refund period and after a completed W-9 has been submitted.
The goal is to make your life easier and your coaching business more valuable. The process is simple, share the link and your code with your runners. They sign up and get instant access to the Method and community support. Zero extra workload for you.
This allows you to:
For nearly all of human history, humans ran without maximal cushioning, motion-control shoes, complicated gait labs, and endless external correction.
Modern running culture has normalized fragility and dependence.
WRM challenges that narrative.
This is a return to:
Not everyone will be ready for this conversation.
That’s okay.
But the coaches who are?
They’re helping lead a paradigm shift.
Protect the brand.
Represent the method honestly.
Stay within your scope.
Do not make exaggerated claims.
Do not misrepresent WRM.
Do not use manipulative sales tactics.
This is a long-term movement built on trust, clarity, and integrity.
If your conduct harms the mission, the runners, or the reputation of WRM, your affiliate coach status and access may be revoked.

"I was dealing with runner’s knee and Achilles pain while training for the Boston Marathon, which I was running in honor of a loved one. Dr. Saabye helped me get to the start line, through the race, and completely changed how I run. I transitioned to minimalist footwear and have been running pain-free for over 14 years. What she teaches works."
"Three years ago I developed foot pain first with running, then even with walking/normal life. I was diagnosed with an accessory navicular bone in my foot, and the sports medicine doctors told me I’d never run again. I thought it was hopeless until I found Dr. Saabye and the Whyte Rabbit Method. Since going through the program, I’ve logged hundreds of miles of running PAIN FREE. I was then even able to run well into my third pregnancy!"
"I’ve been running for over 40 years, mostly on gravel and concrete, and like many runners, I’ve been told along the way that my form was “wrong.” What I found through this approach was actually the opposite—it reinforced that much of what I was already doing was working, and helped me better understand why. By leaning into those principles, I’ve been able to run virtually pain-free. At 75, that tends to raise some eyebrows. People often assume I’m exaggerating—but I'm not. I run almost every day while many of my peers are having hip and knee replacements. When I did experience a brief bout of Achilles tendonitis, I was able to address it quickly without any significant interruption. The Whyte Rabbit Method is a refreshing perspective. It’s straightforward, effective, and a big departure from the usual advice."
"As someone who’s dealt with knee pain and significant health challenges, I was hesitant to keep pursuing running. The Whyte Rabbit Method gave me a completely different perspective. The cues are simple, and the results speak for themselves. I’m able to run comfortably and pain free, and it finally feels like something my body was designed to do."
"When I started distance running, I was constantly trying to balance training with recovering/healing from issues like IT band syndrome and SI joint pain. I went through lots of different kinds of shoes, physical therapy, stretching, orthotics, etc. It wasn't until I switched to minimalist shoes and barefooting and changed how I ran that the pain went away. I’ve been running—including an ultramarathon—for over 15 years since without a repeat of those issues using the principles taught in the Whyte Rabbit Method. Turns out simple works."
"I dealt with severe plantar fasciitis, was prescribed custom orthotics, and was consistently told to wear supportive shoes at all times—even in my own home. I was told that was my only option, so I followed that advice closely and became completely dependent on them. What stood out to me about the Whyte Rabbit approach is that it challenged what I had been told, but in a way that made sense. Instead of adding more support, it focused on addressing the underlying issue. Over time, my pain fully resolved. That was over 10 years ago, and it has never returned. I now go barefoot comfortably every day—something I was once told I should never do, and when I do wear shoes, they’re minimalist. I tend to be very detail-oriented and research-driven, and I don’t change course lightly—but the logic behind this approach—and the results—were undeniable."
From injured, to Boston marathoner, to over a decade of injury free running...
