Why Join GKHAT?

Our goal is see each child enjoy each day wanting to come back for more and improve their overall skiing, their knowledge technical and tactical race skills and how to ski big mountains safely.
The Nancy Greene program is the "FUNdamental" stage of ski development for children. They will be introduced to basic skiing techniques and skills, develop the ABC'S (agility, balance, coordination, strength /speed) in as many different snow conditions and terrains as possible and most of all, have fun on skis.

Developing Skills For Life

Children who are physically educated feel confident. They are encouraged to build confidence and skills through competitive and recreational sport activity. They will enjoy overall health benefits by developing greater physical literacy, which encourages them to be more physically active throughout their lives. Increased activity reverses the current trends in childhood and adult obesity and cardiovascular disease. Skiing is a life-long sport that is practiced by people of every age, shape, size, ethnicity and level of ability, but skiing skills are not the only benefits of this ski program. In addition, the children will learn:

Ski Safely
Cooperation
Independence
Listening Skills
Self-Confidence
