Whitehorse

T﻿his activity has five sessions. Jan. 24th. to Feb. 21st. 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. Location notification will be announced ahead of each date.This active program will see participants improve their endurance and kicksled technique, including efficient and balanced kicking, turning, and safe downhill and braking. One of the best parts of the kicksled is that it has a built-in seat, so part of our weekly adventure will include a break where we visit each other while seated to have a drink and snack.Please come prepared for outside winter activity, wearing good winter boots and warm outerwear, including a toque, mitts and neck warmer, and layers to shed when we sweat. Please bring a pack with a full water bottle and a snack. The program has a cold weather cutoff at -25.Instructor Bio:Anne Middler has been an avid kicksledder in the Yukon for 14 winters. She describes a kicksled as: “a winter recreation and active transportation tool of pure joy.” She has imported and sold Finnish kicksleds through her business Kicksled Revolution for seven winters. Anne’s favourite thing is to share the joy of kicksledding, introduce people to this fun and low-barrier winter activity, and build the kicksled community with people of all ages. Over the years, Anne has shared her enthusiasm for kicksledding at schools, youth centres, community events, wilderness locations and her kicksled shop downtown.
