How do you measure the real impact of Nordic Walking?
Most instructors can see the difference Nordic Walking makes. Improved confidence, better mobility, increased fitness and happier, more active participants. But how do we measure and demonstrate those changes?
At the INWA Convention 2026, Natalia Palacios Samper explores how fitness testing can help instructors assess physical competence and provide meaningful evidence of progress.
Through a lecture and two practical workshops, you'll learn how to evaluate strength, balance, agility and cardiovascular fitness, while exploring how assessment can support goal setting, motivation and long-term engagement.
You'll also experience a range of simple, practical tests that can be integrated into Nordic Walking sessions to establish baselines and track improvements over time.
What changes have you noticed most often in your walkers? We'd love to hear your experiences in the comments.
