Walk Description:

Using the poles, you can tone the upper and lower body at the same time and burn nearly twice as many calories than ordinary walking.

It is a great exercise for improving your posture and balance - it is ideal for neck, shoulder and back problems and also reduces the pressure on knees and hips through the support of the poles.

Nordic walking can be done anywhere - no need for hills, country paths or even snow!

All sessions are every sociable and walking outdoors has been proven to boost mood.

Walks currently @ Thornes Park, Castleford Pool, Pugneys Country park, Pontefract Park and Nostell Priory
