Nordic Walking was originally used by elite cross country skiers as a way to stay in top shape throughout the summer months. 

Unlike when trekking or rambling, Nordic Walking poles are planted behind you in order to propel you along.  This engages the upper body and makes you feel lighter on your feet, which has 4 major advantages:

· You use 90% of your major muscles so your upper body gets toned as well as your legs and backside

· You can burn 20—40% extra calories by using the
poles—this can really help with weight loss

· It take the pressure off your knees and joints and
is great for back and neck problems

· You can get the most out of even a  fairly short walk

If you want to find out more before committing to a technique course why not try a FREE 45 minute taster session.  This will give you an insight into how the poles can propel you along and work the whole body.  You will also understand why it is important to learn the technique properly in order to get maximum benefit.
