Walking Well

Sherry from Strathmore Park

Walking is an important part of daily life. Starting next week is a 3 week workshop which will look at the way we walk and how we can help reduce the wear and tear on our joints and tissues.

You will learn:

- correct body alignment

- simple exercises to reduce the pressure on the knees and feet

- how to walk uphill and downhill to reduce wear and tear on the knees

There will be three sessions. The third will include an outside practical session (if weather permits) to put our new skills into practice.

Dates: There is a choice of daytime or evening sessions.

DAY: 1.30 - 2.25 pm Friday 13th, 20th and 27th September
or
EVENING: 7.15 - 8.25 pm Thursday 12th, 19th and 26th September

Venue: Kilbirnie Pool Group Fitness room

For further information and the cost please see attached poster.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
