SUMMARY:Beginners Nordic Walking Course - 2 Saturday sessions
DESCRIPTION:Our Beginners Nordic walking course is the perfect introduction to this low-impact\, full-body exercise that combines walking with the use of specially designed poles. \nDesigned for all fitness levels\, the course typically covers the fundamentals of proper technique\, including posture\, rolling through the feet\, and the coordinated arm swing and leg movement. Participants learn how to use the poles effectively to engage the upper body\, improve balance\, and increase cardiovascular benefits compared to regular walking. \nThe course will be held outdoors in a relaxed\, supportive environment\, making it a great way to get active\, enjoy nature\, and meet like-minded people. By the end of the course\, participants often notice improved posture\, increased speed and distance and confidence in using Nordic walking poles efficiently to incorporate Nordic walking as part of a healthy lifestyle. \nThe 2 sessions will be held at Monkton Park\, meeting at the Tenth Hole Tea Room at 10.30am. For more information or to book a place visit nordicnomads.net and fill in the ‘contact us’ form.

SUMMARY:ESOL for Wellbeing

During this session\, we’ll assess language needs\, complete the necessary paperwork\, and confirm a place on the course where appropriate. \nHow to Apply\nInterested learners can get a head start by completing the application form online here.

SUMMARY:Life Drawing - Wednesday mornings
DESCRIPTION:“The best life drawing class I’ve found in years” \nA chance to indulge in practising some essential drawing skills in a beautiful environment\, guided by someone with over 25 years of teaching experience. \nYou’ll use a diverse range of styles and techniques that stretch you and keep you motivated to improve. All while enjoying some fresh coffee and meeting some other lovely local artists. You can work at your own pace and be left alone to draw if this is how you prefer to learn. \nTerms cost £105 for 6 week term (2 hour session) or £20 cash drop-in option for our Life Drawing classes. All materials and coffee/tea are provided. \nLife drawing is challenging and rewarding\, but like anything else\, it takes practice and patience. The best way to encourage practise is to vary the media and techniques available; to make sure this is feasible\, we provide materials for free. This also allows more confidence as using expensive personal materials tends to inhibit experimentation. You are\, of course\, welcome to bring your own materials and follow your own path. \nWeek 3 and 6 are a chance to work from one long pose with any material/technique you choose; the other weeks begin with warm-ups to help you prepare\, normally followed by one or two poses following a theme. Sometimes the session is devoted to a worksheet-style drawing\, using many poses on one sheet in different materials. These are a great opportunity to gain confidence in composition\, materials and mark-making. \nPlease visit our website\, www.ragandbonearts.com to secure your place or book directly on here: \nhttps://buy.stripe.com/6oE5l93ZO3LF0akdR1 \n(This class also runs on Tuesday evenings 7-9pm). \nWe look forward to seeing you – thank you.

SUMMARY:Mental health training for non-paid carers of loved ones with mental health challenges (Online)
