Program

Saturday August 10, 15-18; Sunday, August 11, 9.30-12.30
Meeting at Schia campsite.

Introduction: materials, foot rolling, arm movement; basic techniques; parallel and alternate  gaits. Elements of advanced techniques, uphill and downhill progression.
The course is the essential to start practice nordic walking; I will also give you informations about how to continue.
Ad the end of the course I will give you a certificate of attendance: the course is infact a pre-requisite to attend the first level trainer course of SINW (Scuola Italiana di Nordic Walking), for interested people, after adequate practice.

What to bring

Comfortatble clothes (no jeans or tight trousers), suitable to the season, in layers. Shoes with flexible but sculptured sole (semi-rigid hiking shoes are not suitable). Beacuse of the season,  I suggest thin gloves: thick gloves are not suitable. I will borrow you the poles, with no extra charge.
