Urban Poles were designed by an occupational therapist and their unique grip uses 75% of the muscles in your body including activating the abdominals with each step as well as increasing calories burned during walking by up to 46%!  They are excellent for seniors and those with chronic conditions such as arthritis and obesity.

Weekly Urban Poling / Nordic Walking classes have ended for now. For those who wish to try this full body exercise for health promotion or rehabilitation you can contact Sonya to book a free lesson and trial of the poles with any current community membership at sonya@forestterrace.org or 780-463-1613.
