Ochy – the AI-powered biomechanics platform transforming how runners understand and improve their technique – is proud to announce a strategic partnership with England Athletics, the national governing body for athletics and running clubs in England.
“We are excited to collaborate with England Athletics and help runners of all levels better understand their movement,” said Perrine Chapot, co-founder of Ochy and a trained physiotherapist and biomechanist. “With just a simple smartphone video and the power of AI, we aim to bring professional-grade gait analysis to everyone — faster, smarter, and more accessible than ever.”
Through this partnership, England Athletics will promote Ochy via its official communication channels, granting members and subscribers access to Ochy’s lab-quality gait analysis.
Using just a 10-second video captured on a smartphone, the Ochy app delivers an in-depth breakdown of a runner’s form — including foot strike, posture, knee alignment, arm mechanics, and head position. Within a minute, users receive personalized feedback and a custom training plan designed to improve efficiency, reduce injury risk, and enhance performance — whether you are starting your running journey or training for a 5K personal best.
England Athletics is the membership and development body for grassroots athletics and running in England, providing services, support, and guidance to affiliated clubs, athletes, coaches, and volunteers. England Athletics currently supports:
- 1,750+ affiliated clubs and organisations
- 147,000 registered athletes
