XC Ski Instruction

  • We offer private lessons and clinics for skiers of all ages and abilities. Whether it’s your first time on snow, or you’re a competitive skier looking to take your performance to the next level, our coaching sessions and private lessons are for you!

  • While many programs lean heavily on fitness and volume, what sets our coaching apart is an emphasis on technique as the foundation. We focus on helping you fine-tune the movement patterns that truly unlock efficiency, power, and ease on snow.

  • Our ski lessons and clinics are designed to challenge you and leave you with practical, repeatable technique tools, cues, and drills. You’ll walk away feeling understood, supported, and empowered to build on the success you achieved during the lesson. With Peak Form Coaching, technique becomes your pathway to greater enjoyment, lasting improvement, and more confidence on skis.

  • Private lessons with Peak Form can be scheduled in Winthrop near the Winthrop Ice Rink, or in Mazama at the Mazama Trailhead. Typically I reserve Thursday’s and Sunday’s for lessons in Mazama.

  • Coaching sessions are generally 1 hour and can be scheduled 1-2 times a week throughout the season. 1 hour is usually plenty of time learn new skills, receive feedback and still have some ‘homework’ to practice between lessons.
