Walking with Nordic poles engages your whole body creating a balanced, dynamic workout on continually changing terrain. Real time Neuro-Movement instruction provides a full mind/body experience, invigorating in a natural way.

Clear your mind while working out in nature - escape the urban jungle in the nature oasis of Central Park.
Sonja will be providing personalized instruction on this moderate paced walk. Class includes a warm up, basic instruction, 45 min walk and cool down. We provide the Nordic Walking poles and audio - you just need to bring a set of headphones to plug in.
