“I have really enjoyed the Instructor course. I learnt masses about my own technique and how to improve it. Steve was really lovely and very knowledgeable. I thought the actual "how to teach the 10 steps " part of the course was maybe a little rushed, I felt a little unprepared to actually teach after one practice session. I mentioned to Steve that I'd like just a bit more time to practice and he was very accomodating and put my mind at rest, even though the rest of the group were ready to move forward, when it came to the actual assesment I was fine and was glad of some extra time to get my head round the teaching of the steps. a fabulous course and am now feeling confident to get out there and share my new skill.”

Why Walk With Us
Nordic Walking is an enhanced walking technique that uses poles to work your upper body as well as your legs. It gives you a highly effective all over workout that doesn’t feel like one! Nordic Walking is a fun and social activity that can be enjoyed in town centres or open countryside throughout the year.
Nordic Walking uses specially designed poles – not to be confused with trekking poles – to enhance your natural walking experience. With a technique that is similar to the upper body action of classic cross-country skiing, Nordic Walking is a genuinely whole body exercise that can be enjoyed at many levels, at low, medium or high intensity. More than 10 million people globally enjoy this outdoor activity all year round.
Nordic Walking for Everyone
If you can walk you can Nordic Walk! It really is for everyone. The poles mean that effort is shared between the upper and lower body so it actually feels easier than normal walking, particularly uphill. Nordic Walking puts less strain on joints than other activities and can be very effective for people with mobility issues or those recovering from illness or injury. It’s also great exercise for toning problem areas such as the upper arms and abdominal muscles.
- It’s an ideal activity if you haven’t exercised for a while or dislike traditional sports or gym activities.
- It is helpful if you have had an injury as the poles can support and guide you while you work to improve fitness as part of your rehabilitation.
- It is great for athletes for cross training.
- It provides community groups with a sociable way to keep fit.
- And it’s fantastic if you’d like to shed a few pounds.
Whatever your age, from 8 to 80+, you’ll enjoy discovering the benefits of Nordic Walking that improve your quality of life.
