This
is where it all begins.
Whether you are planning
to try cross country skiing for the first time or heading out for
the first time this season, a lesson will get you on the right
track! You've probably heard that if you can walk you can cross
country ski. Well that's true, but walking on cross country skis
is not much fun!
All of our lessons
are 1 to 1.5 hours in duration. Sign up yourself for a private
lesson, bring a friend for a semi-private lesson or join our Introduction
to Nordic Skiing or Intermediate Nordic Skiing Class. Our group lessons usually
include 3 to 8 students. |

- Introduction
to Nordic Skiing:
- Skiing to many newcomers can feel odd
and unfamiliar. This feeling is also common in skiers who only have
an opportunity to hit the trails once or twice a year. Many even
question whether their continued effort is worthwhile.
Since over half of
the first time skiers call it quits after the first time, our goal
is to make skiing a familiar experience through a gentle, positive
and fun approach. This first experience will be so much fun, you'll
want to come back again and again - and maybe even bring your friends!
This class will familiarize
you with the equipment and its use on flat and gently sloping
terrain. When you feel comfortable
with these basic skills, sign up for our Intermediate Nordic Skiing lesson.
Intermediate Nordic Skiing:
- This class will help you improve your
basic skills and introduce you to some new techniques. You'll learn how to
improve your rhythm, extension and balance in the diagonal stride
while developing advanced skills for turning and braking. You'll
also be introduced to basic skating techniques and other energy
saving skills.
If you're not quite
ready for this class, sign up for our Introduction to Nordic Skiing.
