These classes, though originally conceived to improve the skills of novice and intermediate skiers, are also open to more advanced skiers. We will work to combine appropriate skill levels, which may require a time shift for optimum placement. The later session is presently much more popular, however remember that the early session allows for time to reinforce the lesson concepts through some practice. Fine tune your technique and join us!
