Smuggs 55+ Club members are invited to an après ski workshop with physical therapist and skier Kelsey Doe from 12:15 to 2 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 7, 2024.
.
Come prepared to learn strategies while on the trail and strengthening exercises to help reduce falls, improve ski performance, and strengthen muscles needed to get up from a fall.
.
Yoga mats will be available for those who would like to try out the optional exercises. This workshop is designed for both alpine and nordic skiers. There will be time for questions.
.
Pizza and beverages will be provided by the club. Bring your own lunch, if you’d prefer.

The workshop will take place at McGovern Lodge, the yellow house at 1239 Edwards Road where Smuggs’ ArborTrek zip-line tours are based. Look for our club signboard. You can XC ski or snowshoe there (XC map at this link, overview map below); it’s about ¾ of a mile from the Village Center. Parking is available at McGovern Lodge.

Kelsey received her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from the University of Vermont in 2019. She practices at Essex Physical Therapy. Her hobbies include running, hiking, paddle sports, mountain biking, and backcountry skiing.
Space is limited for this members only event. Please RSVP by Thursday, Feb.1, to bonnieparenteau@comcast.net to reserve your spot.
