The Power of the Poles
I’m proud to be a certified Nordic Walking Instructor, accredited by British Nordic Walking (BNW). You may have noticed some of my recent photos on Facebook featuring my Nordic Walking poles! Nordic Walking is a fun, full-body activity that uses specially designed poles to engage your arms, core, and legs — all while enjoying the great outdoors.
Whether you’re looking to boost your fitness, improve posture, or join a friendly walking community, Nordic Walking is perfect for everyone.

Why I started Nordic Walking?
As you know, I love walking, but I wanted more of an overall workout. I’m not really a gym person — although sometimes I try — I really just want to exercise outside and be in nature. Nordic walking is perfect because it gives me a full-body workout while still enjoying the outdoors. Now that I’m a certified instructor, I want to share that with you!
What is Nordic Walking?
Nordic walking is a full-body walking technique using poles to propel yourself forward while engaging your upper body and core. Unlike trekking poles, Nordic walking poles are designed to enhance your walking technique and maximize the workout.
The method is based on the INWA (International Nordic Walking Federation) 10-Step Method, ensuring correct posture, safe technique, and effective movement.
The term “Nordic walking” originated in Finland, where cross-country skiers used it as off-season training. Today, it’s a popular fitness activity worldwide.
