The Group uses this walking technique to exercise and have fun. Nordic Walking is a specific technique for walking with poles that is far more effective in burning calories and whole body toning than walking alone. Members will need to have attended the training sessions, or be experienced Nordic Walkers, and have their own Nordic walking poles. Waterproof trainers are the best footwear. All walks are in London Parks and accessible by public transport. There are two walks a month, of varying lengths depending on location and accommodate the needs of people wanting shorter and longer walks. All start with a warmup and end with a cool down.
