URBAN POLING SUPER CIRCUIT...goes indoors!
Take your poling to a new level!
Bring your Urban Poles (or borrow a pair) and join us at the south west entrance of the Memorial Arena. We will alternate between intervals of poling and muscle conditioning exercises using some simple equipment. This a great way to enjoy the company of others while you keep fit during the winter months.
