A free Nordic Walking taster session is taking place at the Pioneering Care Centre on Tuesday 25 June from 9.30 – 10.30am.

Nordic walking makes use of specially designed poles to enhance the natural walking experience and is a fully body exercise which improves joint mobility as well as releasing tension in neck and shoulders whilst burning 46% more calories than normal walking.

New weekly Get Active Nordic Walking classes will start from Wednesday July 17 from 10 – 11am and on Thursday July 18 from 6 – 7pm costing just £2 per session.

Poles will be provided and the first few lessons will teach you the technique before you progress onto the walk which is led by a qualified leader around picturesque parts of the Aycliffe Way.

To book a place on the free taster session please contact Angie Cooke at PCP on 01325 321234 or email: angie.cooke@pcp.uk.net
