Skate ski whenever it is warmer than -10
If colder than -25 go out for 30-45 mins and have inside time upstairs. (strength stations with tabata /zumba/ world cup videos/technique videos/ CGC)
If colder than -30 have outside time on boots for a brief period and then inside time.
Lesson Plans: pick from Community Coaching Level 4 based on weather, skills of group and what plans have already been implemented. Lesson plans posted at top of this page.
Classic: At this point please confirm that all cl technique points have been taught/reinforced with an emphasize on weight shift through the acquisition of ABC's (agility, balance and coordination).
(diagonal, dp, ankle flexion, weight shift, downhill tuck, snowplow)
Skate Tech skills: introduce on gradual downhill so they have natural speed. Free skate working into one skate. Intro offset on flats and then move to hills.
Window of Speed: encourage lots of activities that have speed < 5 secs. Activities with lots of change of direction activities.
