Step Into Connection: Discover the Power of Netwalking
Looking for a more inspiring way to build real business relationships—without the awkward icebreakers, stuffy meeting rooms, or yet another lukewarm coffee? Welcome to Netwalking—where networking meets fresh air, movement, and meaningful conversation.
Netwalking is exactly what it sounds like: networking while walking. It’s a relaxed, energizing alternative to traditional business meetups, where professionals from all industries come together for a shared walk in nature or around town. No pitches, no pressure—just good company, open conversations, and the chance to connect in a more natural, authentic way.
Our walk leaders are also accredited business coaches. We will have a business growth theme for each Netwalk, developing your personal business skills as well as your organisation!
Why Netwalking Works:
🌿 Break Free from the Boardroom – Walking side by side removes the formalities and helps conversations flow. It’s easier to be yourself outdoors, away from business suits and PowerPoints.
🤝 Build Stronger Relationships – Walking stimulates creativity and openness, leading to more genuine, productive connections than the typical business card exchange.
🧠 Boost Your Mind and Mood – Movement increases energy and clarity, so you leave each session feeling uplifted, not drained.
🕒 Use Your Time Well – Combine health, networking, and a breath of fresh air into one efficient and enjoyable experience.
✅ Safe, Supported, and Fully Insured – All our walks are insured and led by professionally qualified walk leaders and outdoor first aiders, ensuring every Mind and Body Netwalking experience is safe, inclusive, and fully insured for peace of mind.
Whether you’re a freelancer, business owner, or part of a larger organization, netwalking offers a low-key, high-impact way to grow your network—and maybe even spark your next big idea.
