Ski Diva Extraordinaire
Hi Divas!
Going to Steamboat in February, bit the bullet and signed up for their three-day women's ski camp (see below). At age 67 (yikes! how did that happen!?), it's my first ever "ski camp" experience, and it's been many years since I've taken even a group lesson or (way back) experienced a Jeannie Thoren women-only ski demo/clinic.
If any other divas out there have been to this particular camp, I'd appreciate hearing about your (hopefully positive) experiences. I'm a solid intermediate/advanced skier who does not ski bumps (back/knee issues) or with a lot of speed; I prefer blue groomers but have occasionally skied an "easy" black on days that I'm feeling braver/more confident. Looking to improve my techniques and learn to ski with more confidence/less fear (as I've been crashed twice, I now will often wait to push off until a run is less crowded).
I'm familiar with Steamboat as my guy and I have been going there for 20+ years. Excited but also a bit anxious (as in, what have I done?!") about this adventure. Thanks for your input!
WOMEN'S SKI CAMP
Two of Steamboat’s Olympians, Deb Armstrong and Ann Battelle, host Steamboat’s women’s ski camps with certified experienced female coaches. Emphasis is on camaraderie, fun, and skill improvement. Steamboat pros create a positive atmosphere that maximizes learning.
The camp includes breakfast on the first day, lunch at Hazie's daily, a technical equipment session, First Tracks on days 2 and 3 (lower levels will have a morning indoor session), and culminate with a social cocktail gathering at the end of day 3 with women seminar participants. Plus, receive a variety of special deals and gifts sponsored by Steamboat Ski & Sport.
CLINIC DETAILS
DATES OFFERED: JAN 7 - 9, FEB 4 - 6, MAR 3 - 5, 2020
A motivational opening session with your host kicks off what is sure to be a great experience. Each day's activities run from 8:00am to 3:00pm. Small group sizes, "we focused" learning, and world class female instructors have contributed to the longevity of this 25 year-running program.
