Welcome! I’m Josine and I run WALX Tonbridge & Tunbridge Wells. I’m keen to share my love of Walking and in particular Nordic Walking, with you, in the fantastic countryside where I live. My mission is to create a fantastic community of Walkers and Nordic Walkers who gather for together for fitness, friendship and fun!
Nordic Walking is, of course, my passion and is at the core of what I do. It is easy to learn and the fitness benefits are huge, not to mention the positive impact on mental well-being from exercising outdoors with like minded people!
You can read more about me in the “Your Team” section below.
I would love you to join us! “Your Next Adventure Is Just A Walk Away!”

There is no doubt that the cold weather, gloomy skies and short days affect both mood and motivation. At this time of year I find it helpful to consciously live in the present accept that my energy levels may be lower – I would love to train to run 10k this year but have decided

Have you thought about bringing your team for a day out in the beautiful Kent countryside to enjoy some fresh air and learn a new skill! Before starting my Nordic Walking business in April 2021, I worked as an accountant in a corporate environment. I am well aware of the benefit of days out […]

One question that I am asked frequently is “how do you find all the walks?” I think that most people realise that when I am not walking with clients, I spend A LOT of my time finding new routes, walking them several times, risk assessing them……before they get added to my repertoire! Naturally […]

A VERY useful article from WALX HQ. We have a discussion about gloves at the start of almost every walk at the moment so thought I would share this info! “We often get asked if you can use gloves with Nordic walking Poles and the answer is YES. What’s more, we advise that you do use […]

Role: Lead Instructor and Business Owner
I have always loved walking. I’ve done all sorts of exercise during my life – running, spinning, boxercise…….but walking is always what I come back to and the only thing that I never tire of doing! I discovered Nordic Walking during 2020 and it has taken my walking to a different level as it uses the whole body (not just the legs). I realised it can be as beneficial as running but without the impact!
In September 2020, after a challenging few months of juggling home schooling and a busy career in finance, I took the radical decision to leave the corporate world behind and retrain as a Nordic Walking Instructor. Nordic Walking Tonbridge & Tunbridge Wells launched in April 2021, with a re-brand to Walx Tonbridge & Tunbridge Wells in February 2023. My fitness, both mental and physical, is probably better than it has ever been and my walking and nordic walking has connected me to the community in which I live and the people around me, in a way that I never thought possible. I absolutely love what I do and I hope you will too!
Remember – Your Next Adventure Is Just A Walk Away!

Nordic Walking has been great for me this year. I love this community - a great addition to my world!
Nordic Walking has been a great addition to my exercise regime. The walks are expertly led but also great fun. I'd recommend anyone to give it a try to see how it works your body harder than regular walking!
Finally! I've found an exercise that raises my heart rate, works my entire body in the fresh air and that complements my pilates so well!
I have thoroughly enjoyed and benefitted from Josine's local walks and her patience, guidance and expertise in Nordic Walking is exceptional. Also looking forward to exploring more of the local area but exercising too!
