New partnership with Ochy: the AI-powered biomechanics platform

England Athletics is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Ochy – the AI-powered biomechanics platform transforming how runners understand and improve their technique.

"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, both parties will jointly deliver on Ochy’s mission to revolutionize biomechanic lab analysis and making it accessible to everyone.

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.

Chris Jones, CEO, England Athletics said,

"We are delighted to be partnering with Ochy to bring innovative technology to our athletics community."

"At England Athletics, we are committed to supporting athletes at every level, and this collaboration allows us to provide cutting-edge tools that enhance performance, technique, and engagement in the sport."

"We look forward to seeing the positive impact this partnership will have across our clubs, coaches and athletes nationwide."

As an official partner, Ochy is committed to supporting the development of grassroots and elite athletes alike, empowering coaches, technical officials, and club leaders with science-backed, data-driven biomechanical insights. By highlighting movement inefficiencies and enabling targeted interventions, Ochy contributes to injury prevention, performance optimisation, and long-term athlete resilience.
