Nelson Nordic Women's Long Distance Skate Ski Group

Intermediate to advanced Skate Ski Sessions on Wednesday mornings at 10am.

Prerequisite: Intermediate to advanced skier (not newbies). Fitness level that allows you to skate ski continuously for 30 minutes, familiarity with offset and one skate techniques.

If you are a woman into skate skiing and would like to get better at skiing more efficiently or get more kilometres in, now is your chance to do so in a committed, positive and supported environment. We will be offering a 6 week program designed to give you all you need for skiing between 10 to 30 kms more comfortably. Maybe you want to sign up for a loppet and get some more tips or just have a consistent training group to advance with week by week. Your instructor will be with you for 2 hours every session to work on technique as well as skiing longer distances with you at variable speeds.
