What to Expect:
This 4 day/4 night Nordic skiing tour is guided by Julie Young, Director of the Silver Sage Sports Performance Center and former Director of the Cross-Country Center at Northstar at Tahoe. With Julie expertise and guidance, beginners skiers are sure to bring their skills to the next level.
Each morning your guide(s) will lead you through a movement preparation session to warm your muscles and increase flexibility for the days of skiing ahead of you. The classes will focus on single leg strength, core strength and balance, all necessary to obtain a strong skiing stance.
Throughout your 4 days in Tahoe, you will focus on class Nordic skiing (striding) and skate skiing. Your professional guide(s) will review the equipment and show you proper technique through demonstrations. The group will have the opportunity to then practice all of the skills on land before hitting the snow to perfect the techniques. A small group atmosphere will allow each skier to receive one-on-one feedback from our trainer as well as learn from fellow participants. Each day will end with a gourmet lunch to reward all of your hard work.
At night, the group will enjoy gourmet dinners, hands on make-your-own pizza class and a moonlit snowshoe tour.
