Walk to Run Programme

Created by Charles & Katina from our Clinical Gym team!

Introduction

We are really excited to be launching our Walk to Run programme at Waves. Something we commonly see at Waves are people who begin a Start to Run programme, however often injuries still arise or they find that motivation and keeping it long-term is tricky. And we get you. For many of us these starting programmes are already a huge step, particularly with life and everything else that comes with it. This is why we have decided to create a Walk to Run programme, with Prep to Walk options.

For months Charles and Katina have been discussing and preparing a programme that is focused on;

  • YOU – individual assessments and follow-ups
  • Empowerment – Providing you with information so you can build long-term and effective health habits
  • Realistic & effective – 2 guided sessions per week in small groups + extra options for at home (if this works for you at this time)
  • Fun & motivational – it is important to enjoy what you do! With small groups and a great atmosphere guarateed in a supportive and open environment.
DETAILS

What

We will focus on walking/running as well as strength, mobility and body awareness over a 12 week programme to provide you a solid and effective foundation.

  • 1 individual intake session*
  • 1 walk/run outdoor group session with Charles & the gym team**
