Adult Clinics
Clinic Info
Our Adult Clinics are 6-week or 8-week programs for skiers or snowboarders and are open to all ability levels. You’ll meet with the same group each week so you can grow and improve together! Groups are formed based on ability level and similar goals, and we will make every effort to keep the same instructor with your group for each session, although it is not guaranteed.
