Technical improvement and special courses

Our technical and special courses are aimed at "skiers with good experience". By this we mean that you should already have learned the basic skills and be able to get around on cross-country skis in a fairly confident way. You don't need to be a stylish skier - our course will help you get to that stage.

 

Nordic proficiency courses
These courses follow SnowSport England's system. The full syllabus goes from One to Five Stars. Our own courses allow you to progress from One to Three Star. The courses are based at  Høvringen in Norway.

See Høvringen proficiency>> for details.

Fast-track for downhillers
This course is for experienced downhill skiers who want to try cross-country for the first time, but who are understandably reluctant to join a holiday for complete beginners. We  start by teaching basic cross-country techniques. Then we expect to make a lot of technical progress, and also to cover satisfyingly long daily distances.

The course is based at Høvringen in Norway.

See Høvringen fast-track>> for details.

Ski and PT
This course, in which the ski instructor is also a personal trainer, is for people who want to use a skiing holiday to kick-start or boost their fitness. The course will mix informative fitness sessions with good cross-country skiing.

The course is based at Dalseter in Norway.

See ski & PT>> for details.

Back to basics
This course is for those who already have at least a week’s experience of cross-country skiing but feel that they have not yet quite mastered the basic skills. Instruction will be combined with half-day tours in which we will enjoy relatively easy tracks at a relaxed pace.

The course is based at Dalseter in Norway.

See Back to basics>> for details.

Pre-season dryland week
Held in mid-autumn, this course will help get you ready for the ski season - whatever your current level of fitness. It will be an active week and we will be mainly outdoors, but there will also be group discussions of aspects of fitness and training, and one-to-one fitness assessments.

The course is based at Dalseter in Norway.

See Dryland at Dalseter>> for details.
