Power of Poles Intro Course is a 90-minute introduction to get you started with nordic walking poles. It will turn your walk into a workout. You will learn the basic technique of using the poles to improve posture, strengthen your core, work all the major muscle groups, burn more calories than regular walking and get an enhanced cardio workout, all while feeling propelled by the poles and lighter on your feet. After you have completed this introductory session, you will receive the Freedom Passport and you can join any NWUK group walks in the UK. (This includes a free first walk with NWUK Tas Valley.)

Poles will be provided for you on the day.Please aim to arrive 5-10min before the start time so we can begin the session promptly.
