​Enjoy a weekly fitness class at Haldon Forest Park, using the scenic 2.5, 4, and 5K Nordic walking trails. ​ The class includes 50 minutes of Nordic fitness walking to raise the heart rate, followed by 20 minutes of functional fitness (strength, agility & balance) training - all set within the trees.  

​

Advice is given on raising your heart rate safely and effectively, along with ongoing tuition to encourage effective Nordic walking technique. ​At certain hills, optional shuttle runs are included, enabling you to raise your heart rate and work at your own level.

 

The class also includes strength, agility, and balance training using 1 to 3K weights and resistance bands, along with a group warm-up and stretches.​

​

Participants may set their own fitness goals, such as building muscle mass and improving cardiovascular fitness.

​

Group support and motivation are essential components of the class.
