Roller ski taster

Get an introduction to roller skiing and start by learning some of the basics of classic technique. Open to non Club members. If you've never cross country skied or roller skied before, this taster will give you the chance to get a flavour of the sport.

Cost including equipment hire: Adults £10.00/Juniors £5.00.

Coaching for improvers and intermediates - skate technique

Develop your skills and learn to roller ski more efficiently with tuition from our expert coaches. The aim will be to help you ski better, more efficiently and with less (wasted) effort.

Subject to coach availability we may run separate improver and intermediate groups, or combine the levels in one group.

• Improvers coaching is for those who have attended a number of skate beginner sessions  & can ski the circuit safely.
• Intermediates coaching is for competent roller skiers who want to refresh/refine/improve their skills.
• You can indicate your skiing level during the booking process.

Children's coaching

Designed for children aged 7-12 these sessions aim to develop skiing skills through play and fun. The focus will be on movement that develops coordination, technique and speed, both individually and as part of the group.  This is the first of the new series of 5 sessions to 1 November.

Southern Roll 3km free technique time trial challenge

This is one of our regular Southern Roll challenge events. It's a fun event where you ski as fast as you can for 3km, either classic or skate technique, and get a timed result [it's a similar idea to Parkrun but on roller skis]. It's free to enter and open to LRNSC and other Snowsport England club members. Find out more about the Southern Roll here.

You need to be a LRNSC and Snowsport England [SE] member to take part in these Club activities, although newcomers to the Club can attend up to 3 sessions including the taster session before joining. 

Membership costs just £20.00 per year - please join here. Until 31/10/26 LRNSC will administer and pay for your Snowsport England basic Green tier membership so you do not need to take out separate SE membership for this period.

If you're a member of another Snowsport England club please email us with current copies of both your SE membership and your club membership before booking. The LRNSC member rates will apply to you.
