X-COUNTRY ** Beginner Lesson Programs

  Beginners’ Day

This day trip is geared toward the beginner cross-country skier.  Most of the X-Country Ski School instructors are on hand for lessons and activities aimed at giving beginners the best possible introduction to cross-country skiing.

Don’t feel left out if you are not a beginner. More experienced skiers still can get lessons on these days.

 2011 Beginners’ Series

( Note: see Vera Polyakova's excellent article on last year's beginners' ski series at "Report on 2011 Beginner Ski Series")

For those individuals who would like a progression of techniques taught to them at the beginner level. We are offering a three-day series where you will have a chance to develop basic cross-country ski skills.  Emphasis will be placed on increasing your ski ability so that at the end of the series you will be comfortable skiing beginner to intermediate trails. Emphasis will be placed on your ability to ski down (and up) hills on cross-country trails.  Vera Polyakova will be the lead instructor for this series.  Please contact her at: xcskischool@highparkskiclub.com  and put "Beginners Series" in the title.

This is a great way to develop your skills quickly, if you have never skied before.
