WALX Far North

Walk Description:

We are excited to welcome you to this introduction to the use of poles to exercise the whole body while walking. In this 60 minute structured session you’ll learn the basic techniques, giving you the skills to be proficient at using the poles and getting the most from them in your walk, feeling the difference that walking with poles brings whether your aim is to return to exercise, increase your aerobic fitness, strengthen and tone your muscles or just get more from your current walking activities. We’ll provide the poles for this session so you just need to arrive dressed for walking and exercising outdoors – this means comfortable footwear with reasonable grip, comfortable clothing and a waterproof jacket. We will meet at the Janet Street car park. Please register with WALX (which is free) and book your place on this session online. If you book and can’t make it please let Martin know on 07562 319068 prior to the session so we know not to expect you. Parking is free and there are toilet facilities at the nearby Tesco Supermarket. If you would like to bring a drink and snack we will not be far from the cars or you can use a rucksack, please make sure it doesn't inhibit your arm movement. Any further questions please contact us on 07562 319068 or info@walxfarnorth.co.uk

Location Notes:

The parking in Janet Street is roadside along the river side of the road. There are no toilets in the immediate vicinity but there are toilets available at Tesco superstore the other side of the river.
