Warming up

A series of warmup movements before starting your walk.
A Nordic walking enthusiast

Notice mention of health. Using poles facilitates balance during exercise.

Let’s meet on July 30  to Nordic walk!

We can’t walk on water (unless you’re not telling me something), but we can walk by the water! Come out for some Nordic walking, a fun and effective way to exercise. It’s also a great social activity because you can walk with other people and enjoy their company.

Dress for the weather and sun and bring some water. I'll bring the Nordic walking poles so you can burn calories, tone muscle, and improve overall health.

This will be a free session. For more information about Nordic walking, check out the Nordic Walking Guy blog and the Facebook page.

Are you a beginner and never Nordic walked? Don't worry. I'll take time to teach the technique so you can get started.

When: Saturday, July 30, 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM.
