The power of experience to make movement more attractive and especially easier
Programs that go a step further and want to provide support to people to find perspective for themselves. 'Walking' is the ideal initiative for more and varied movement. Expectations have been set from the community, healthcare, and government, but solutions have also been offered. The benefits (health and preventive effects) of movement are well known, yet figures from the CBS show that percentages fall short of the expectations set by the government’s exercise guidelines in 2017.
The TrW101 (Slow Walking - 101) programs aim to contribute to more responsible movement. Click here.
Return to the basics of self-confidence and energy.
Taking an extra step through walking also helps to regain self-confidence. Program that take you by the hand, guide you to more energy and vitality. A more stable version of yourself, while working on your overall health and resilience with the support of a certified coach. Click here.
A good pair of walking shoes and appropriate clothing is enough to face each day with renewed energy, creativity, and good spirits.

Quote
Walking is not a sport! Hiking, trekking, modern footwear and sleek poles notwithstanding, the only thing that matters is the intensity of the sky or the brilliance of the landscape. But once you are on your feet, you cannot remain still.
