Embrace the beauty of winter with Women of Colour Remake Wellness! Join us for a beginner-friendly morning at the Kanata Nordic Ski Club.
Whether you are stepping onto skis for the very first time or you’re a beginner looking to build more confidence, this event is for you. We provide the gear and the "know-how"—you just bring the energy!
What to Expect
Our friendly instructor will walk us through everything step-by-step:

The "Ooze": How to get back up safely if you fall.
Gliding: Learning to move with and without poles.

After our time on the snow, we’ll head into the warm chalet to wrap up with light snacks, refreshments, and great conversation.
