A Total Body Walx class for people with Parkinson's will be conducted at Halo Pontypool Active Living Centre, focusing on balance, agility, and stamina exercises. Participation is free.
Join us for a guided canalside walking class! A blend of balance, agility and stamina exercises in a peaceful waterside setting.
Total Body Walking makes every step count with strength and balance exercises, walking drills, and WALX trekking poles and accessories. These sessions are designed specially to support walkers with Parkinson's Disease, turning walking into a workout with elements of cardio, strength, balance, agility, high impact and flexibility.
A WALX instructor will show you how to use pace to boost your walking workout. You'll learn how to traverse routes with and without poles, handle rough terrain and longer distances, and keep yourself fit, well and challenged without pushing yourself too hard.
It's not all hard work though - a Total Body Walk is a chance to relax and connect, making friends and bonding in the quiet of the Brecon and Monmouthshire canal path.

We ask for your co-operation in this matter. This will allow others who would miss out to join us - and from our point of view, tickets mean funding and no-shows don't.
