Trail Transformation
Nordic Skiing Coaching
Our comprehensive Nordic ski coaching is designed to help athletes of all levels and ability. Whether you are a Birkie veteran or just learning the difference between classic and skate skiing, we can help you get comfortable with flying on the snow. Our coaches are seasoned skiers in both classic and skate disciplines.
​
With training plans that incorporate regular tempo workouts, technique drills, easy days, and mobility-specific rest days, the Trail Transformation coaches work to make Nordic skiing accessible, safe, and fun. Additionally, as certified physical therapists, our coaches can advise you on prehab and rehab exercises to make sure your body is ready to tackle any distance.

The feeling of gliding across snow is hard to beat. But Nordic skiing can be a challenging sport for both novices and veterans. If you’ve never tried classic or skate skiing, you might feel nervous about taking a lesson or picking out gear. If you’re a competitive Nordic skier, you might find it hard to time your training with your race calendar—or to get through that nagging shoulder, hip, or ankle pain.
Our coaches are here to help, whether you’re just getting started or striving to glide past your course PR. Let’s get to work.

The Trail Transformation Difference
Trail Transformation takes a holistic approach to Nordic ski coaching. We don’t simply coach you for a race—we help you develop healthy habits that serve you for life. Many athletes who reach out to us are already injured, which is why we are committed to minimizing factors that can lead to injury down the road.
Coaching Philosophy
Higher mileage and intensity levels are not always better, especially for the longevity of a Nordic skiing career.
At Trail Transformation, we focus on developing a lifelong skier. It is our responsibility to forgo short-term success to protect the long-term health and development of the skier. We help all Nordic skiers stay injury-free and train to their maximum potential, so they can reach their skiing goals.
