Dear Friends:

Congratulations on making a commitment to your health and well-being!

Mandy Shintani

Welcome to UrbanPoling.com. We are your source for information on one of North America’s fastest growing fitness trends – urban poling.

Urban poling, also known as Nordic walking, fitness walking, pole walking and exerstriding, is a low-impact, full-body workout that can be done anywhere you can walk.

It’s Like Cross Country Skiing…
Without The Skis

At Urban Poling, we’re as committed to your health and well-being as you are.  In fact, this website was specifically designed with your health in mind!

We’ll teach you the Rutlin technique (the Nordic walking technique developed by Tom Rutlin in 1988) so you can achieve the MAXIMUM benefits of pole walking including increased weight loss, core strengthening, improved fitness,  reduced joint pain and more.

When combined with the Urban pole’s one of kind erognomic  handle and unique design features, the Rutlin Technique lets your arms transfer the work to the large muscles of your upper body.  Our poles are the choice of top fitness instructors and physical therapists across Canada because they improve core strength, don’t create annoying vibrations and are of unbeatable quality.

At Urban Poling, we love what we do and it shows in the quality of our poles and training programs! 

If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact us anytime.

Sincerely,

Mandy Shintani, BSc (O.T), MA
