10 Minute Walking Workout for Beginners

Tutor: Sam Godfrey, Nordic Walking and online fitness instructor

Join fitness trainer Sam for a 10 minute walking workout for beginners during Get Moving Week 2026 at the Virtual Village Hall in partnership with Yakult. The Walking Workout is a fun, easy-to-follow way to move your body, get some steps in and feel fabulous! Take part standing or seated, this class is fully adaptable. Why not put on a pedometer or smartphone step-counter to count your steps as you go! 

What is Exercise Snacking?

This 10 minute session is designed as an exercise snack. Exercise snacks are short bursts of movement throughout the day that can have a positive impact on our health and wellbeing, using gentle, accessible movements you can easily fit into your day.

If you’re feeling motivated to try some more exercise snacks, you’ll find a wide range of bite-sized exercise and dance sessions during Get Moving Week in partnership with Yakult in our Get Moving Week YouTube Playlist here.

Preparation

Make sure you have plenty of space to move and clear any potential hazards; use a sturdy, stable chair if doing a seated workout.
