The Start 

The start time of the session is 6.00 pm

We will meet in the car park situated near Souter Lighthosue.  Once you have completed the PARQ and been provided with a set of poles we will make our way to the grassed area next to Souter Lighthouse

You will then be taken through the first 5 steps of the INWA 10 step technique.

The walk

After the lesson we have found that the best way to get the most out of your session is to practice what you have learned by Nordic Walking, we will walk around 2-3 miles.

Hope to see you there.
