The calendar below shows upcoming classes, events and walks that I will be leading or participating in. Since it’s winter in Minnesota we don’t have very much scheduled in the way of Nordic walking classes and clinics. Be sure to stop back in the spring for lots of opportunities throughout the city.
Classes include everything from short Introductory classes to 3 part classes for more personal attention to your technique. I am also available to teach private individual or group lessons.
There are lots of community events that are including Nordic Walkers. You can now support your favorite cause by walking with your poles. If you don’t see your event on the list you can always ask if they would be open to letting poles be part of the event. Be aware that there are timing issues when including nordic walkers and runners. We always want to ensure that poles won’t be in the way of runners creating a potentially unsafe situation.
We know that it’s more fun to walk with a group. The walks in the schedule are open to everyone and there will always be poles available for use on the walk. Most of these walks are free of charge but there are a few community ed Nordic Walking Clubs that require registration.
For more classes outside my teaching area check out Great Lakes Nordic Walkers for a complete listing of classes and events in the Twin Cities area.
Hope to see you out there!
