Learn-to-ski lessons

Endurance United MyXC Parent Classes

OurLearn-To-Ski lessons are in conjunction with the Minnesota Youth Ski League. Our classes are open to parents as well as the general public. Lessons will start shortly after the MyXC kids take off, and will finish slightly before the kids are done skiing, allowing for time to send kids off and meet them at the end of their session. We will conclude our four weeks of training in time for you to join your children for the final weeks of MyXC and ski as a family. In addition to the program fee skiers are responsible for purchasing appropriate ski pass per venue and for paying for ski rental if needed.

Sessions designed for new skiers! Join the experienced EU staff for four sessions to quickly improve your skiing. Skiing is often described as a very technical sport. Our four week long lesson plan will have you moving more confidently on your skis. Each session will have a coach dedicated to classic skiing.

Lessons will include instruction building off of previous weeks topics such as:
