Walk Description:

A gentle safe way to walk yourself fitter! This is a gentle session which will help build up your stamina with the benefit of using Nordic Walking poles to help with balance. They take the pressure off your knees and lower back. This session is suitable for those who want to build up to the longer or more vigorous walks or may have concerns about their health and are looking for an easier pace on a good terrain. Many of our members are seeing the benefits of participating in the wellness sessions. 

Results have included a reduction in blood pressure, improvements in breathing, better balance and a general feeling of wellbeing. We have a lot of fun as we exercise in the fresh air. This is a very social session and we encourage chatting! 

You do not have to have a passport to join wellbeing classes. Be good to yourself and book now!

PACE Explained:

PACE 1  Approximately 3 to 3.5 miles per hour. A comfortable pace for anyone who wants to walk and talk. There is time to stop and take photos etc.  

PACE 2 Approximately 3.5 to 4.5 miles per hour. This is a steady pace which might make your breathing a little heavier, especially on the hills. 

PACE 3 Approximately 4.5 to 5 miles per hour. This is for the more experienced walker who knows they can push the pace. There will be times where they will be breathless but there is also recovery (usually on the flat or downhill).  

Please be assured that we have a NO DROP POLICY (no none gets left behind) and the walk leaders will always ensure we use different methods to cater for different needs within the group.

You can do an unlimited number of walks and exercise sessions, including online classes for as little as £25 per month. This is as little as £3.12 per session if you attend twice a week.
