Walk Description:

The "WALX HQ Presents ..." sessions are delivered online from WALX & Nordic Walking UK head office, helping you stay active and mobile from home.

Yoga WALX incorporates gentle Hatha Yoga positions and breathing focus, usually within an outdoor walk. This session is virtual and works through the positions and breathing elements, delivered by Katie. As this programme is designed to be delivered outdoors, there are no floor based exercises, and the positions can be done with or without poles.

Hatha Yoga originates from Raja Yoga. The sanskrit word ‘Ha’ means sun (and left) and ‘tha’ means moon (and right). Hatha Yoga evolved as a physical practice to balance your energy by performing difference postures (asanas) and controlling the breath. There are many benefits to this, with the key benefits relating to enhancing an individual’s focus and control. Eliminating external distractions, working towards comfort. If you are new to Yoga you will enjoy Katie’s relaxed style of teaching as you learn the postures and breathing techniques. If you are more advanced Katie will introduce more advanced positions to give you the extra challenge.
