Pole Walking

Pole Walking

Pole walking is a great, low-impact way to improve your fitness and help manage chronic conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, and obesity. Running from April to October, our pole walking group is suitable for all fitness levels and allows you to socialize while walking safely at your own pace. Poles are provided during the program.

Join our Pole Walking group to participate in a workout that engages 90% of your muscles and start reaping the benefits:

  • Improve your balance, strength, and mobility.
  • Burn 20% to 45% more calories than regular walking.
  • Socialize with others and enjoy the natural beauty of Tweed and Marmora.
  • Better manage chronic conditions such as high blood sugar and low bone density.
  • Set goals and become a healthier person.
