Nordic Walking Workshop

Saturday, September 15, 2018
@ 8:30 AM - 10:30 AM

Contact: (205) 682-8019 or http://aldridgegardens.com/

Learn Nordic Walking from Dr. Leroy Hurt, Associate Dean, Community Engagement, University of Alabama.

When done correctly, Nordic walking can burn up to 40 percent more calories than regular walking, reduce knee and joint stress, boost oxygen consumption (which, in turn, benefits the brain), and help realign the body after a day hunched at a desk.

This event is free but we do ask that you RSVP to let us know you'll be attending.
