Ready to get moving, feel better, and enjoy the fresh air? Join us for a friendly and supportive Couch to 5K Nordic walking course – perfect for beginners, those returning from injury, or anyone who just prefers a very gentle session. Although called 'Couch to 5k' it's actually designed to get you to reach whatever goal is right for you - if that's just 1k that's absolutely fine.
TUESDAYS 10AM TO 11AM AT KNOWLE PARK IN CRANLEIGH. 6 WEEK COURSE
Over 6 weeks, you’ll learn the technique of Nordic walking – a fun and effective full-body workout using specially designed poles. It’s kind on your joints and can burn up to 20% more calories than regular walking!
Each session includes:
A gentle warm-up
Step-by-step Nordic walking technique coaching
A progressively longer walk through beautiful nature
We’ll gradually build your stamina and confidence, helping you work towards your personal goal – whether that’s a full 5K or less - this is all about reaching the goal that is right for YOU. You’ll also have access to optional “homework” walks to keep up your momentum between sessions.

What’s included:
Use of Nordic walking poles (a £50 refundable deposit if you’d like to borrow them between sessions)
Expert guidance in a relaxed, encouraging atmosphere
A chance to connect with like-minded people
Optional coffee at Heartwork café in Knowle Park after each session
At the end of the course, you’ll have the opportunity to join our friendly walking group, Surrey Striders, which offers weekly walks of varying levels across the stunning Surrey Hills and beyond.
Hi, I'm Vicky – founder of Surrey Striders and a passionate advocate for Nordic walking. I truly believe this activity is for everyone – whether you’re new to exercise or already active, young or older. I’d love for you to experience the benefits and joy it brings.
