Learn-to-ski lessons
Endurance United MyXC Parent Classes
Our very popular Learn-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. When MyXC moves to back-up site due to venue conditions so does the Learn to Ski program. In addition to the program fee skiers are responsible for purchasing appropriate ski pass per venue and for paying for ski rental if needed.
*Note: Each location is capped at 15 participants.
Price per season $110
