Nordic Walking Come Nordic walking in Devon My Nordic walking group meets every Thursday afternoon. Please send me your contact details if you would like to be join my Nordic group and I will send you the details of the walks coming up.
What is Nordic Walking in Devon? If you can walk, why not try Nordic Walking in Exeter? If you can Nordic walk you can achieve a highly effective full body workout that can burn up to 46% more calories than walking without Nordic poles.
Nordic walking uses poles, similar to Nordic Skiing, to work your upper body as well as your legs so you are moving in 'four wheel drive'.
I qualified as a British Nordic Walking Instructor in January 2012 and have been leading Nordic Walking groups every week since then. We meet every Thursday afternoon in almost all weathers. Every week it is somewhere different exploring the best of our fantastic local countryside.
