Once you've completed the Power of Poles, you will be entitled to WALX membership and will be entitled to the members' prices on the WALX  store - ask for details.

We recommended that you DONT wear stiff hiking boots (for this session) as these restrict your walking with poles - walking shoes or trainers are preferred. Wear outdoor clothing and esnure you have suitable waterproofs if the forecast is for rain. We will only cancel if the weather makes lessons too difficult.

Please ensure you bring a small backpack/bumbag with water and a snack if required.  If you have any questions, don't hesitate to get in touch - just click on Contact above for mobile phone and email details.

The session takes place at Hungerford Common and starts by the Downgate pub parking area.

If you feel unwell between booking your class and joining us, we ask that you err on the side of caution and cancel your booking. You will be recredited to book another date or a refund can be issued.
