Discover the Passion of Cross-Country Skiing and Rollerskiing with Expert Guidance

Dear Ski Enthusiasts,

Are you ready to embrace the incredible world of cross-country skiing or rollerskiing but aren’t sure where to begin? Or perhaps you’re already involved but looking to deepen your passion, refine your technique, or overcome the challenges that come with the sport? I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

With over 40 years of experience as an elite cross-country ski racer, I’ve had the privilege of representing Canada on the prestigious Worldloppet race circuit. As a certified CANSI and PNCE cross-country ski instructor, as well as a certified Skike rollerski instructor, my expertise is built on decades of training, competing, and teaching. At 59 years old, I’m as strong and competitive as ever—rollerskiing nearly every day for nine months of the year and cross-country skiing the other three.

But this journey is about more than just technique.
I specialize in helping people discover the why behind their commitment to skiing or rollerskiing. It’s about building a foundation of passion and motivation that lasts a lifetime.

Together, we’ll cover:

• Safety & Comfort: Learn how to protect yourself while maximizing enjoyment in every session.
• Clothing & Equipment: Find the right gear to suit your needs and ensure your comfort in all conditions.
• Nutrition & Endurance: Discover strategies to fuel your body and sustain your energy.
• Overcoming Challenges: Prepare for unexpected distractions and develop mental resilience.

Instead of navigating the ups and downs alone, let my experience save you time, frustration, and unnecessary mistakes. My personalized consultations will empower you to build confidence, set meaningful goals, and fully enjoy this transformative sport.

This isn’t just an investment in lessons – it’s an investment in yourself. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned athlete, I’m here to help you achieve your best.

Let’s make your cross-country skiing or rollerskiing journey one you’ll treasure for a lifetime.

Reach out today to get started.

Warm regards,

Phil Shaw
