Move past the Bambi on skis stage with friends.

This is a drop-in, for-fun, ski support group to help you find your glide.

You’re hooked up with skis and the best possible snow season is here. Now all you need is confidence, a bit more practice and a little nudge!

It can be hard to relax on skis if you don’t feel comfortable, confident or steady. This small beginner group will move at a relaxed pace in comfortable conditions to help you find your glide.

We will meet in tracked urban parks on fair weather Tuesdays and Thursdays (dates will be posted based on the weather forecast). . You are welcome to register for one or come to them all. It is up to you.

What you’ll need:

• Properly fitted classic skis, poles and boots (waxless, skin skis and waxable skis are all welcome).

• Dress as you would for winter running and add a winter jacket or vest on top you can take off.

• Facemask options to cover for warmth and to keep our aerosols to ourselves.

• Headlamp

• Avoid bulky mittens and heavy ski pants
