Technique Workshops

When we first start walking with poles, it’s natural to need a bit of guidance as we learn the technique. After a while, with focus and practice, our form often improves. But over time, especially as we relax into walks or chat along the way, that technique can gradually slip.

Why is good technique important?

Efficiency – Poor technique wastes energy, especially when going uphill.

Injury prevention – Misalignment increases the risk of strain or injury.

Pace – Over time, compromised technique can slow us down.

These workshops are a great opportunity to refresh your skills, improve your efficiency, and stay injury-free, whether you're new to pole walking or have been doing it for years.
