We Don't Teach Women to Turn ... We Teach Women to Ski and Ride!

"Dear #bestclassever ~...thought I should let you know that I have accomplished my goal of skiing with my son this year. I am in line for the first lift up and taking the last lift up all the way up and down the mountain here at Snowmass.

Each of you helped me achieve this goal. My older brother that lives in Snowmass for 50 years said he enjoyed skiing with me & my son is pretty impressed. My classmates, you all gave me the knowledge and encouragement I needed to push myself.

Two more blue bird days ahead for us. According to the tracker app, we skied 30 miles today."

Fresh air... Friends...

W.I.N (What I Need) time this winter! 

Founded in 1971, Ski-Away is proud to be the longest-running women's traveling alpine program in the country.  Not only do we offer a great way to enjoy our Minnesota winter ~ ~ our supportive teaching environment encourages women to improve their skiing and riding skills at their own pace and comfort level.

Our amazing staff of women's instructors are an integral part of the 50year Ski-Away legacy.  We are a GOLD MERIT SKI SCHOOL ~ ~ All of our instructors have been certified by the Professional Ski Instructors of America / American Association of Snowboard Instructors (PSIA-AASI).  With years of experience both locally and at national resorts, the staff at Ski-Away live up to a reputation as some of the very best ski & snowboard coaches in the Twin Cities.

From our welcoming introductions for beginners... to refining all-mountain tactics... to getting faster in the race course... there is a spot for everyone.  

We look forward to having you join our community of 200+ women laughing, learning, and celebrating together on the slopes.

The Ski-Away Instructors are SUPER-EXCITED to ski with YOU! It's going to be a great winter!
