Fresh, fit and frisky through the forest
Nordic walking is more intensive than walking and also tones the torso musculature. It stimulates the heart and cardiovascular system and boosts fitness levels.
The use of poles makes use of the upper body muscles. Active walking is thus a more comprehensive form of training than simple walking, while subjecting the joints to greater exertion. In principle it is as suitable for those with lower fitness levels as for ambitious sports enthusiasts, as the effort required is proportional to your pace.

Life begins to flow as we change between movement and stillness
Conscious body movements combined with conscious breathing.
The asanas (body positions) are only one aspect of yoga, one of the main features of which is that everyone practises the movements according to their abilities. Through constant practice the body becomes more supple, more resilient, more stable and the exercises are automatically carried out in their entirety. They are always effective as long as you consciously enter and leave the position and pay careful attention to your breathing.
The asanas are closely linked to the pranayama (breathing) exercises, yoga nidra (relaxation exercises) and meditation. Together they harmonise the body and mind.
