VikingWalking is an original Finnish Nordic Walking school.  My name is Raija and I am the owner and principal instructor of the VikingWalking  School. I come from the land of Nordic Walking,  Finland,  where Nordic Walking was first discovered and now is a popular fitness and health promoting activity.

I am a certified Nordic Walking Instructor, registered physiotherapist ,  senior lecturer of physiotherapy at the University of Brighton and I have  a doctoral degree  in community physiotherapy.   As a physiotherapist I am keen to promote Nordic Walking as health promotion and rehabilitation activity and as an academic member of the university I am  interested in the scientific  evidence of the benefits of Nordic Walking in health , fitness and rehabilitation.

I hold Nordic Walking  workshops for beginners as well as advanced walkers  in and around the Eastbourne -  Brighton area.  Walkers of all ages and abilities are welcome to join and the training will be adapted to suit all levels.  If you require individual teaching or would like to form your own group, these can be arranged on  mutual agreement in your place of preference.
