ARAPAHOE BASIN, Colorado – There’s a very good chance that ski season is just a little more than a month away (depending on weather). While that is very exciting news, now is probably a good time to ask yourself if you’re actually ready to clip into your skis or snowboard. Are you in shape? Can you lunge your way from the office to the ski slopes? If not, Arapahoe Basin is offering some killer ski boot camps around the Denver metro (and on the mountain) to get you prepped, and their new ad spots, made by Cactus Denver, could get you inspired.
Arapahoe Basin’s Ski-Boot Camp series starts this Saturday, September 14, on the slopes of Arapahoe Basin. All you need to bring is a yoga mat, gym shoes, and your ski gear, and Arapahoe Basin will provide the workout designed to target the muscles used the most through skiing and snowboarding. Plus, while it’s going on, the resort is offering free basic tune-ups on your gear.
Music, sign-in, and ski tunes start at 10am, and the actual HIIT workout starts at 10:45am. Afterwards, you can expect some refreshments, mingling, more ski tunes, and, at 1pm, music from Dave Watts and Friends. If you’re interested in attending this weekend, make sure you pre-register here. It’s free, but it can fill up.
If you can’t make it this Saturday, no worries. A-Basin will have three more Ski-Boot Camps in the Denver metro area. On September 28 in Commons Park, October 5 at Stanley Marketplace, and October 12 at Clear Creek Valley Park. You can register for all of those here as well. Good luck with the workouts!
