Private Lessons Nordic WalkingBored with the same local walk every day? Learn something new and turn your walk into a full-body workout! Fitness Pole Walking uses 90% of your muscles and can burn up to 45% more calories than regular walking. It is gentle on your joints, good for your back - and fun!
These private lessons - and later guided walks - can count as your daily exercise outdoors. It is legal to work with a sports trainer one-on-one, and we will take all Covid precautions very seriously to stay safe. Lockdown special:

Tai Chi Chuan on ZoomTired of the good old family Zooms or quiz games? Do something new this year: Invite your family to some Tai Chi based workout sessions, custom-designed to the needs of your group (we can add moving meditation, Shaolin animal styles or some Kung Fu to keep the kids interested).
Tai Chi Chuan is excellent for balance, stress release, agility, focus, muscle strength and mental well being. It can be done until late in life, as it is gentle on your joints, back, and heart. Lockdown special:

Tai Chi Chuan (Shaolin Style)
For balance, fitness and fun.
Beginners Course
We run our eight-weeks Beginners Course in Ealing usually twice a year, and sometimes on Zoom. It covers basic Tai chi principles and enables students to join our weekly Intermediate class.
More info I would highly recommend this course to anyone wishing to take up Tai Chi. It allows you to forget about everything else for the duration of the class and I find I am more relaxed in mind and more energised in body afterwards - Thelma |
Weekly Classes
Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced Classes every week (live in Ealing and/or on Zoom). Our eldest student is 88 years old; so don't be shy if your hair has turned silver...
More info Andrea’s encouragement and pragmatic approach brings out the best in all of us. I can feel myself getting better each session, and since starting as a novice early last year, I now feel much more relaxed and flexible in both body and mind - Paul |
Private Lessons
In person or per Zoom at a time that suits you. You can either work on the full Curriculum in regular sessions, or take a few custom-designed sessions to support your development or a life transition.
More info My private lessons per Zoom are a real 'pick-me-up', as I often attend after a hard day at work. After each lesson, I feel relaxed, stronger in my body, more peaceful and more optimistic about my problem-solving ability. I really need this now - Mike |

Andrea was an informative and patient instructor. Two hours went really quickly. I definitely recommend Nordic Walking to anyone wanting to try a new fun exercise - Emma |
Guided Group Walks: Fitness, friends and fun in nature
I really enjoy taking part in the walks. I discovered areas of Ealing I didn’t know existed, met some lovely new friends, and improved my fitness and well-being. It’s the ideal form of exercise for me as it is gentle on the body and yet I get a workout without being exhausted at the end. After a walk I feel relaxed and energised - Chiara Well done, Nordic Walkers!Our Nordic walkers collected £1200 in December 2020, as we participated in the Big Walk fundraising effort for Shelter (a charity that supports homeless people).
A big thank-you to everybody who participated! |
Our guided group walks are targeted at different ability and fitness levels. The goals are achieving a good workout, improving your technique and spending quality time with others. You must take our Foundation course before joining the walks.
Based on Covid 19 regulations, I currently limit the group size , therefore, you need to sign up for each walk (social distancing in place). More info and schedule 
On our walks, there is always time to enjoy nature and discover the little wonders of the wayside.

Team Development Events
We combine the best of Tai chi, Nordic walking, Meditation and Coaching - creating an inspiring, custom-designed experience for your team. Events can focus on fitness, fun and team spirit, or they can include modules about conflict resolution, effective communication and collaboration. The sessions can be stand-alone or added to a meeting or training seminar; this is great after a day of sitting down and 'thinking' together - get up and work with your 'physical intelligence'. Government regulations will apply during the Pandemic; we can do your event outdoors, on Zoom, or in an appropriate venue of your choice that allows for social distancing. More info |
