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!
