"Would you like to try Nordic Walking, get active outdoors & meet new people? Come along & join us for this class/ group. Poles provided.

Everyone is welcome, this class is for all abilities and poles will be provided.

Nordic walking is a great way of walking, why?

· Full-body workout: Works your arms, chest, shoulders, and core along with your legs.

· Higher calorie burn: Boosts your heart rate and burns significantly more energy than normal walking.

· Better posture: Opens your chest and strengthens your back from pushing on the poles.

· Joint protection: Takes weight off your hips and knees, making it easier on the lower body.

· Heart health: Builds aerobic fitness and endurance safely.

· Balance and stability: Gives you four points of contact, which helps prevent falls.

· Chronic condition support: Aids recovery and helps manage issues like arthritis, Parkinson's disease, and poor bone density.

If you have a health condition and unsure if Nordic Walking is for you please get in touch and we can work this through with you
