LSR Scottish Snow Training 2021

We are aiming to primarily train at Glenshee Ski Centre and have already agreed training space, reduced price lift passes, etc. If we cannot train at Glenshee, due to lack of snow or for some other reason, we will do our best to temporarily relocate to another centre.

We will also be looking to provide LSR Race Support at the Scottish snow races, as well as all the indoor and dry slope races as we normally do.

LSR Scottish Snow Training is open to all LSR Members of all ages, from U8-MAS. Only thing we ask is that you are happy to train and have fun all day regardless of the Scottish weather.

Snow and COVID restrictions pending, we are hoping to officially start on the 16th January 2021 and run every weekend until the snow runs out. If snow comes earlier, we will aim to be there as well!!

Naturally with it being Scottish skiing we will have to be reasonably flexible and at sometimes very last minute, but we shall do everything we can to make it as smooth a ride as possible.

All sessions will be taken by our top notch LSR Coaches. So far we provisionally have - Callum Henderson, Paul Henderson, Eilidh McLeod, Nick McKelvey, Kathleen Ray and Tom Rofe ready to go!!
 

LSR February Break Training 2021

This was meant to be additional training to run alongside out main block of LSR Training.

Following the cancellation of LSR Training sessions in January 2021, following the Scottish Government National Lockdown, these have now been used to replace the cancelled sessions in January.

So, while these sessions are no longer available as LSR February Break Training 2021, they are now part of the main block of LSR Training.

LSR Private Training

LSR is more than happy to provide one, two or three on one coaching sessions at Hillend or across Scotland throughout the year.  

The Hillend sessions have to be booked through the ski centre as a standard private lesson.  However, you can request specific LSR coaches and we are more than happy to facilitate the organisation of these sessions.  The cost for these sessions will be Hillend charges only, no additional cost is incurred.

Sessions across Scotland are subject to whatever your needs are and coach availability.  Please note that depending on location, etc. cost will be bespoke for each session, though we will make it as cost effective as possible.
