Nordic Walking

I have recently qualified as a Nordic Walking instructor with British Nordic Walking.  It was a great course and I’m hoping to get a couple of groups started in the New Year.

Why is Nordic walking so great?
It’s for everyone, if you can walk you can Nordic walk
You use 90% of your skeletal muscle so it provides a great full body workout
Pushing with the poles helps strengthen the core and tones the upper body
It is sociable
It’s done outdoors getting you out and about in the countryside
No other special equipment is required, I’ll provide the poles you just need some enthusiasm
Uses more calories than walking without poles so is great for fat burning

You can read lots more about Nordic Walking at <http://www.britishnordicwalking.org.uk/NordicWalking.aspx>

If you are interested in learning how to use Nordic Walking poles give me a call or drop me a line.  I’ll be organising a beginners group and using the poles with one to one clients from the beginning of the year.
An afternoon beginners course will cost £50 and will run for five weeks.  The cost includes pole hire with a maximum of 6 walkers in the group.  In the future I aim to run cheaper group walks for people who have learnt the technique with a discount for clients who have their own poles
