Course Description
The course is a practical, light-hearted, one-day training course, and is designed for those new to Nordic Walking (poles are provided).
How you will learn, in brief
What you will learn, in brief
* Note: The one-day sessions have been very successful, rather than the previous approach of finding three consecutive weeks for the training. However, the whole day’s training can be too much in one session for some folks, this is not an issue at all, and you can leave after Part A (Taster) and join Part B and C on another training day (see timetable below for Part A/B/C timings), many folks have done it this way, and it has also worked very well.
