The local women who joined our Taos Women's Ski Week group in 2018 had had a poor experience the season before because there was a clique of locals who knew each other. It was the top group in terms of ability. So we put herself in the next lower group. But got a little bored. As it turned out, our group had good chemistry. Which was a little surprising given that it was a bunch of advanced/experts who had to spend the entire week on groomers because there wasn't any black terrain open due to low snow conditions.The women were competitive and cliquey.
I wish that I could take a women's clinic that was taught by women AND men. I want the best instructors available, regardless of gender.
What fun we had at Diva west when it was at Snowbasin and we had two men, examiners, who were our instructors. Two of the best in all of intermountain west, not just at Snowbasin. PHENOMENAL experience.
That was an awesome ski week. Guess we lucked out as I felt very comfortable with the group and the Level 3 instructor. It was a very positive experience.The local women who joined our Taos Women's Ski Week group in 2018 had had a poor experience the season before because there was a clique of locals who knew each other.

I've done both women only and co-ed. Can go either way, but tend to prefer co-ed. But I was a tomboy from the start and the ski buddies who I ski with most often are men.
Yes it was!That was an awesome clinic!
