Role: NWUK Delivery Partner
I first tried Nordic Walking when I was unable to run due to a medical condition. Problem solved! I discovered that I could maintain and extend my fitness and health, for far less apparent effort, whilst enjoying great company, by being outdoors and all the time enjoying beautiful scenery and fresh air.
This could be you! Nordic Walking requires very little specialist equipment. I provide the poles (until you choose to buy your own) and you wear sensible outdoor clothing and shoes.
I offer taster sessions for you to try it out and learn to classes to teach you the correct technique so that you can get the most out of Nordic Walking.
Once taught you can join my weekly 1hr fitness walks in a variety of locations and on different days and times. Take a look to see what suits you.
Every month I will be offering a longer Adventure walk, usually a bit further afield, always enjoyable in a beautiful setting and definitely finishing with coffee or lunch!
I look forward to welcoming you to our lovely friendly group.
Role: Walk Leader
Meet Mary the walk leader for Chalke Valley Nordic Walking. She’s brilliant and knows all the routes and short cuts if folks (as she calls them!) need one. She comes on every walk to backmark and leads super walks if I can’t. We coudn’t manage without her.
