About this Event
Nordic walking is a sociable and fun outdoor activity based on ordinary walking. It uses two lightweight poles to turn your walk into a whole body activity.
Nordic walking can be done by anyone. With the right technique you can strengthen your upper and lower body muscles, improve your posture and balance, increase your sense of wellbeing, and boost your fitness. You can also burn 20-46% more calories than ordinary walking.
Experience a women-only taster of Nordic walking during this hour-long session. It will be led by qualifed instructor Subitha Baghirathan and she will lend you the poles you need. It's friendly and fun and don't worry about your fitness level. You can take it at your own pace.
Subitha will also tell you about our free and low cost Nordic walking courses and classes starting in Eastville Park, Netham Park, St George Park, and Page Park in March.
