Instructional Ski Clinics

The Instructional Ski Clinics (often referred to as regular race clinics) are geared toward skiers looking to develop their basic skiing and racing abilities. Participants should be comfortable with all of the aspects of skiing covered in the Learn to Ski Clinics. Skiers range in age from 5 to 12+, if not competing in the GTSC Middle School Program. Skiers must be able to use all rope tows independently in order to participate in these clinics. The clinics will begin by meeting at the bottom of the Birch rope tow for dynamic stretching. The skiers will then be divided into groups by ability. This will allow the coaches to focus on the areas of basic skiing that need improvement. The main goal of these clinics is for skiers to have fun, while learning the basics of ski racing and becoming more fundamentally sound skiers. The primary focus will be on drills emphasizing fundamental skill-building with a secondary emphasis on running courses. We focus on creating good habits, honing fundamentals by utilizing a variety of drills and proceed into gate training as ability and interest progress.

Instructional Ski Clinics will be held on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from January 3 to February 23, except for January 26.  The cost is $160 again this season, for registration prior to December 3.

Session 1 will be held from 4:30pm to 6:00pm and Session 2 will be held from 6:30pm to 8:00pm.

Skiers may only attend the session for which they are registered!
