Hi, it's Valerie, the Pole Walking Diva.

Thanks for taking a few minutes to check out PoleWalkingDiva.com. In the winter of 2009, I joined a Nordic Pole Walking Group in Naples. (That's our group at the top of this page!) I was hooked from the very first class and decided to get certified as a Nordic Pole Walking instructor. I taught classes and led groups this past summer in New Hampshire and am excited to get a group going on the beach in Bonita.

I'm in my mid-fifties and fitness has always been an important part of my life. I even owned a fitness center at one time. I work out regularly (indoors), but in southwest Florida, getting outdoor exercise is the best! One of the things I love most about Nordic Pole Walking is the social aspect: we walk and talk and the time goes by really fast. Add all the health benefits to the fun, and it's really a winning formula.

When I'm not pole walking, playing golf, designing and creating jewelry, or cooking, I do work for a living! My specialty is goal setting and in 2009 I wrote a goal setting book which is available online as a downloadable ebook. This year my book will go on Amazon. I also facilitate a mastermind groups for solopreneurs. Right now I'm working with a group of artists.

I live with my husband, Adam, and our two cats, Hugo and Louie. (Take a look at these handsome guys below!)

I look forward to meeting you. Please email me with your questions or comments.

Sincerely,

The Pole Walking Diva

Always check with your doctor before beginning an exercise program.
