Technique

To gain maximum benefit, it is important to learn good, effective technique. The aim of the technique is to optimise upper body effort and slightly exaggerate the human body’s natural walking motion without changing its natural rhythm.

Nordic Walking for Health instructors use a comprehensive multi-stage stepladder technique to teach Nordic Walking (known as the Nordic Walking for Health snakes-and-stepladder©2009&2017 technique) for the purpose of exercising as effectively and safely as possible for the benefit of health and wellbeing.
