As a complete beginner, you'll be pleased to know that Nordic Walking is suitable for everyone. It is easy to learn and highly effective.

I'm a very experienced Nordic Walking Instructor and have been teaching Nordic Walking in Salisbury now for over 10 years and look forward to introducing you to the wonderful benefits.

​
You'll start your Nordic Walking journey with a 'Learn To' programme which will teach you the basic technique so that you get the maximum benefit from your walks. This award winning course will help you get the most out of your Nordic Walking by teaching you the safe and correct poling technique. This structured course teaches you to competently Nordic Walk regardless of your level of fitness or ability to be co-ordinated! ​
The complete course is delivered over 2 x 1.5hrs lessons or 3 x 1hrs lessons. Training fee (group) is £45 per person and this includes the loan of Nordic Walking poles​.

I also offer a private coaching course (1:1 basis) which can be booked at any time to suit you. Training fee (private) is £80 per person and includes the loan of Nordic Walking poles.
