Adult Winter Programming 2025-2026
Crowsnest Nordic Ski Club is excited to introduce adult programming for the 2025/26 season. Our instructors are certified Canadian Association of Nordic Ski Instructors (CANSI) and are members and coaches of the Crowsnest Nordic Ski Club who volunteer their time and skill to coach our Youth Programs. Below is a description of each of the programs we offer. Finding the lesson that is best for you is important to us.
Classic Intro Program:
This program is designed for first timers and those who have not been skiing for many years. The program covers the very basics to get you safely started and information on which trails to stick to. This program includes falling and recovery, diagonal stride, double polling, introduces uphill and downhill techniques (snowplows and herringbone).
Skill Development Program:
This program is for people who have some experience and would like to enhance their classic skiing skills. Our instructor can help you improve your diagonal stride, double poling, uphill diagonal stride, one step double poling if there is interest, and if time permits, we can introduce skate ski technique and learn some balance and coordination exercises. Depending on program participants, additional techniques like free skate, one skate and offset skate may be introduced in the programming.
Both programs will run on Saturdays for 6 weeks (Jan 10, 17, 24, 31, Feb 7, 14).
Time: 2:00 – 3:30 PM
Location: Allison Chinook Provincial Recreation Area Ski Trails
Cost: $120.00
Program participants must bring their own ski equipment.
