ROLLER SKIING
ROLLER skiing is one of SSIF’s seasonal sports, offering a small group course focused on personalized coaching and skill development during AUTUMN AND SPRING months. By booking a course, you secure your spot for 6 consecutive sessions, held at the same time and day each week, with the same group and instructor. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to refine your technique FOR THE CROSS COUNTRY SEASON, this course is the perfect opportunity to enhance your skiing abilities, with an emphasis on technique, endurance, and building confidence on the trails.
We offer two levels, allowing you to progress at your own pace. Our courses provide a highly engaging and supportive environment, ensuring plenty of opportunities for feedback and improvement.
All course sessions are held outdoors, in the area around Stockholms university. Each group meets for 6 sessions, with each session lasting 60 minutes. Skis are available for loan, but please note that participants are required to bring their own boots, poles, and safety gear. For questions regarding equipment, contact [email protected].
Changing rooms are available at Frescati Sports Center, where the group will meet for the classes. Our courses are co-ed, welcoming participants of all genders, and are open to adults aged 18 and older.
We offer 2 different levels on our courses:
Level 1
Beginners. This level suits those who have never stood on a pair of skis or those who feel unsure about the technique. We focus on handling the equipment and learn the basic techniques to be able to navigate different situations.
Level 2
This level suits those of you who have skied before and want to develop their technique. The participants learn what technique is right in different situation, practice on finding the balance and making their way energy-efficiently. For level 2, you should have roller skid before and should be able to ski at least a couple of kilometers.
