Nordic Walking Workshop
Learn the basics of the cross country skiing style exercise know as Nordic Walking. Saturday, April 14th, 2007.
Saturday, April 14, 2007
Rio Grande Nature Center
Two sessions - 9:00a.m. and 1:00p.m.
Nordic Walking is regular walking with hand-held poles similar to those used for cross-country skiing. The Nordic Walking technique helps burn 40% more calories than regular walking, strengthens the upper body and reduces stress on the joints.
Alexandra Hornbergs, a German exercise expert and Gyrokinesis® teacher, will lead the 2 1/2 hour class. Alex will lead the class through a Gyrokinesis® warm-up to increase range of movement, flexibility and coordination. Then she will demonstrate proper Nordic Walking techniques, lead the group on a hike through the bosque, and provide cool-down stretches to finish.
