About this Event
3 week course starts Monday 12th November at 9.30am
Thoresby Park
On our nordic walks we not only get a workout, but we can chat along the way. We are active, getting fitter and healthier and making new friends at the same time!
Originally a summer training regime for cross-country skiers Nordic Walking is an enhancement of your natural walking posture. Using specially designed walking poles, similar to ski poles, the Nordic Walking technique makes something we do naturally, twice as effective by engaging 90% of your major muscles! The poles help to engage the core, to work the arms and also propel you forward to walk quicker!
