Skiing can be...
Scary as heck
You're scared of getting hurt, going too fast, and being worse than your friends.
You don't want your boyfriend or girlfriend to send you tumbling down a black diamond.
And you definitely don't want to end the day crying.
Overwhelming with Gear and Ski Pass Choices
You're so confused by all the ski gear lingo and how to get the gear you need.
Also, do you get Epic or Ikon? A 4-pack of lift tickets? A lesson at an independent resort?
Expensive $$$ and Intimidating
You're shocked by the daily lift ticket prices and how much the equipment costs. How can you make it budget-friendly?
And what the hell is up with the bro vibes?? It feels so intimidating that you don't know where to begin.

MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Blake Eve
Hi, I'm Blake! I didn't know how to ski when I moved to Colorado in 2017 (whomp whomp....), and now it's my favorite sport (whoop whoop!).
I have been a beginner at countless Colorado sports, from skiing, to mountain biking, trail running, climbing, and more. I know how much it sucks to feel like a newbie, and how scary that feeling can be.
I don't want ANYONE to be held back from playing outside because they are too scared to try something new! This guide exists to empower more gals to get after it in the mountains and feel as comfortable and as safe as possible.
I'm here to guide you in all the stuff I had to learn the hard way. You'll also hear from additional expert instructors so you learn all the technical details the right way!
I hope to see you in the mountains!
MEET YOUR ski expert
Corey Aretakis
I never actually ski with Corey, because Corey is already out of sight the millisecond after we say "meet you at the lift." She's the best skier I have ever met.
Corey knows an absolutely bonkers amount of knowledge about skiing, ski gear, and the mountains of Colorado. She was in ski club in college and her athletic pursuits in Colorado include about every single mountain sport you can list off.
She joins as the resident expert on all things skiing so you can be confident that all the technical information provided is accurate.
You'll Love This if:
You're a 20 or 30-something who wants to learn how to ski and get more confidence for this upcoming season.
You have newly arrived to Colorado, you have a new interest in skiing, or you plan to visit Colorado.
Your ski experience is limited or zero. Maybe you've skiied a few days in the Midwest or the East coast.
You're nervous about skiing. You get scared and overwhelmed when you think about going out on that first day with your friends.
You want to make sure you don't miss this boat on getting your gear and ski pass in time for the season!
Who Is This NOT For?
Someone who isn't comfortable with standard technology. The lessons are all online videos in a member portal, and the digital downloads are Google Docs.
Someone who isn't willing to swap out some Netflix time for some learning time. This is a self-paced online course, so you'll need to hold yourself accountable!
FAQs
How long will the program take?
There are 4+ hours of videos. We recommend watching about 30-45 minutes per week over the 8 weeks, but you can do it at your own pace!
The workout program includes 5 workouts per week and range in 30-45 minutes per workout.
Is this just for Colorado??
No! There is a section about the local resorts and retailers in Colorado, but the majority of the course applies to all beginner adults!
How long do I have access & when does it start?
You have lifetime access to all materials, including updates.
Please note: you are purchasing a pre-launch sale, and the full program will be available soon. We will keep you updated via email as soon as they go live!
Can’t I learn all of this on Youtube?
Youtube is an amazing resource with thousands of free videos. Any person is capable of doing their own research and going down the rabbit hole for self-study and learning!
But we know how hectic and overwhelming that can be. We exist to simplify learning by bringing the expert knowledge and resources to you. Your time, and your sanity, are precious!
Something that's true, ESPECIALLY for this course, is that we often don't even know which questions we should be asking. Example: I would have had no idea to look up the parking reservations at Arapahoe Basin (which are required for most of the season!), or that granola bars freeze from the cold when they are in external pockets (which is a great way to break a tooth eeek!).
Something holding you back?
If you have hesitations or questions that haven't been answered yet, we are happy to help you! Any voice in the back of your head or unanswered Q, just email us at [email protected]. We want you to start this program with full confidence and we are here to help you!
