Come and join this week course to be held over 4 consecutive Tuesday mornings at 10.00 on Southampton Common.
This is a great way to learn to Nordic Walk whether you have been to one of our taster sessions or not.
I will instruct you from basics to being proficient covering different stages each week. This will cover warm ups, technique warm downs and stretches, and hopefully some fun and laughs along the way.
We will meet at the far end of the Cemetery Road car park before going onto the common for a 10.00 start.
Nordic Walking is an enhancement of ordinary walking – it makes something we can all do… twice as effective! Nordic Walking uses poles to in order to add two major benefits to walking
The use of poles means the upper body muscles are used as well as the legs
The poles help to propel the walker along – this means he/she works harder than usual yet the support given by the poles makes it feel easier!
Nordic Walking is a specific fitness technique and is not to be confused with trekking, hill walking or trail running as the poles are not planted in front of the walker/runner but in a specific way that increases the use of the upper body. It can be done by anybody, anywhere and does not require expensive equipment or clothing.
