Jenny is an INWA qualified Nordic Walking Instructor, having completed training with British Nordic Walking, and is trained in Emergency Outdoor First Aid - so you will be in safe hands!
She is originally from nearby Llandudno, North Wales, and moved to Snowdonia in 2015, after spending 10 years living in various cities in England (and six sunny months in Australia!) "Having been away from the area and then moving back, really makes me appreciate the natural beauty of Capel Curig, and the great outdoors so much more. I really wanted to share this with people. Moving here was was a complete change from living in cities like London - but one I am grateful for every day."
An experienced triathlete and skier, Jenny first tried Nordic Walking with a local group, whilst looking for new outdoor activities and a way to keep fit in the off season. "I went to my first session, and was amazed at the workout I got. I considered myself pretty fit, but the speed of the walk was a surprise, and I discovered muscles I never knew I had!"
After having two children in quick succession she was also seeking an effective alternative to standard cardio exercise, that would be kind on the joints and still help maintain fitness levels. Nordic walking fit the bill perfectly! "Most of all I love getting out in the fresh air and speaking to people - it's such a mood booster and I never regret a walk."
Jenny speaks English and Welsh so can deliver your session in either language - and is always happy to teach visitors a few useful Welsh words or assist with tricky pronunciation!
The original aim of launching Snowdonia Nordic Walking Ltd was to share this accessible and enjoyable sport with either local people, or those visiting the area. It's a chance to view some spectacular scenery whilst also learning a new skill and getting information about a beautiful and interesting area. The hope is that you leave us having made a connection, as well as getting a great full-body workout!
