Dorothea Bassett Live and Learn Kinesiology, the fitness club located in Thornlie, is proud to promote a local fitness event centred around Nordic walking. This exciting form of exercise, which has recently made its way to Western Australia, traces its roots back to Finland in the 1930s.
Led by the experienced and accredited trainers, Dorothea and Tom Bassett, Nordic walking groups are held in both Canning Vale and Kings Park. The concept is simple yet effective – participants engage in rhythmic walking using specially designed poles. This unique technique offers a whole-body workout, burning approximately 400 calories per hour.
One of the great advantages of Nordic walking is its versatility. It can be practised on various terrains, allowing participants to connect with nature and explore their surroundings while reaping the benefits of physical activity. Moreover, Nordic walking is suitable for all age groups, making it an inclusive and accessible exercise option for anyone interested in improving their fitness levels.
In addition to offering a calorie-burning workout, Nordic walking also promotes better breathing, encourages proper posture, and provides resistance training without placing excessive stress on joints. These benefits make it an appealing choice for individuals seeking a low-impact exercise routine that still yields significant results.
