Remember ... if it is raining tonight, we still go ahead, just please bring layers .. ie, rain jacket, warm underclothing (thermal) etc to keep warm.

Session #6

I trust you enjoyed Lyndon's talk, finding it informative and getting any niggly questions answered.  If you want to get in touch with Lyndon, then easiest way is to call his workplace, Nayland Physiotherapy, 243 Nayland Road, Stoke on 547 4974.

This coming Tuesday we meet once again at the Botanics at 6.30pm.  We will split our time evenly between personal trainers Jo Duncan and Gaye Evans, for a stretching session and outdoor training segment.

This week I will also ask you to give me your order of preference for our upcoming Body / Martial Arts sessions, ranking in order from 1st preference to 3rd preference from Seido Karate, Aikido Karate and Yoga.  Please note that as numbers are limited for each activity, you may not be able to get your first choice.

See you Tuesday, in the meantime, as always, keep active!

Session #5

This week we meet at the Botanics, 6.30pm for a chat with Lyndon Chandler of Nayland Physiotherapy about injury prevention before heading out with the NBS Nelson Striders for a 30-40 minute walk/jog.  Please bring warm clothing for the talk first (you can leave excess clothing in my vehicle when we depart from the park if you like).
See you there!

Session #4

This Tuesday we meet once again at the Botanics, off Milton St, 6.30pm for our session.  We will begin with a brief discussion on training principles, then Greg Lineham will chat to us about the technique of 'race' walking, before we have our active part of the session at the park itself.

Please bring warm clothing to wear before we start our activity part of the session.

See you there,

I hope you enjoyed the session with Brett last week - remember, you are always welcome to head in and take advantage of his knowledge and get yourself fitted with no obligation to purchase afterwards.  You just need to allow at least 15 minutes to go through the shoe fitting process.
