Train as a Nordic Walking Instructor with British Nordic Walking
Love Nordic walking and want to turn it into a career that works with clients from support to sport and everything in between?
Or do you already teach another sport and want to add a proven, low-impact, full-body discipline to your toolbox?
Work in fitness, personal training or outdoor education and want something structured and evidence-based?
Are you a physio, rehab specialist or health professional looking for a safe, functional way to support clients across a wide spectrum of ability?
Our Nordic Walking Instructor qualification combines structured online learning with focused, face-to-face training.
You will first complete the INWA™ Online Foundation Course, building strong foundations in theory, technique and teaching principles at your own pace. You then attend the two-day practical course where you apply that knowledge in real settings, learning how to teach, coach and lead safely and professionally with one of our qualified National Trainers.
Practical courses are delivered in small groups to protect quality, allow detailed feedback and ensure every candidate receives individual attention throughout the two days.
British Nordic Walking is the UK’s only provider licensed by the International Nordic Walking Federation (INWA), the global governing body for Nordic walking. Your qualification is internationally recognised and built on the INWA education system developed in Finland, the birthplace of the sport.
You will train in the INWA 10 Step Method™. The Global Standard for Teaching Nordic Walking. This structured approach gives you the confidence to:
• Teach safe, effective technique
• Work with clients from rehabilitation and support settings through to fitness and performance
• Adapt sessions for mixed abilities and varied fitness levels
• Improve posture, balance, strength and long term wellbeing
Qualifying is only the beginning.
As a British Nordic Walking instructor, you gain ongoing professional support, access to CPD and advanced training, practical marketing guidance, and a clear pathway to progress within the national structure. You become part of a connected UK-wide community of instructors and walk leaders who share knowledge, experience and standards.
We are a not-for-profit organisation focused on quality, integrity and raising standards in Nordic walking across the UK.
If you are ready to gain a recognised British Nordic Walking, INWA™ qualification and build a rewarding role in the outdoors, this is your next step.
