Dryland-4-All
The term “Dryland” means that you are not on skis or on snow! However, it sometimes gets muddy and wet. We’re not sure how accurate the term “Dryland” is!!
Registration for 2023/24 Dryland-4-All is now open!
Adults! Get in shape for the ski season with Fall Dryland-4-All!
Don’t be stuck in the sludge when the snow finally arrives. With fall dryland training, you will develop the fitness, strength and skills to jumpstart your skiing. When the snow is ready for you, you will be ready for the snow!
Dryland-4-All is just that. All levels of skiers can participate. If are planning to sign up for Ski For Fitness, Nordic Newbies or Masters, OR if you just want to get in shape for the nordic season, this program will help you to prepare for your on-ski sessions. We will work on balance and weight shift as you develop the cardiac capacity and specific muscle groups needed for a day on the trails. A great prep for the season!
