Adult Learn To Ski Program

Our on-snow ski instruction program, led by CANSI-certified instructors, is designed for adults looking to learn or improve their cross-country skiing skills.

Program Options:

Intro to Cross-Country Skiing – Perfect for beginners or those looking to build confidence. Learn the fundamentals of classic skiing, with an option to explore skate skiing later in the season.

Technique Improvement – For those with some experience, this class refines classic skiing skills for greater efficiency. Skate skiing may be introduced based on interest.

Intro to Skate Skiing – Focuses exclusively on skate skiing. Prior classic skiing experience is recommended. Skate skis, boots, and poles are required.

Note: Ski equipment is not provided—participants must bring their own skis, boots, and poles.
