CANSI is the national association for the training and certification of cross country and telemark ski instructors in Canada.
Anyone 15 years of age or older can attend a Level I course in either cross country or telemark discipline. Level I courses are offered across Canada.
Upon successful completion of a Level I course you become a member of CANSI and this gives you access to higher level certification course, refresher briefings, skill development programs and all technical information designed to help you grow and develop your skiing and teaching skills.
The new year is upon us, and with it comes the desire to make the most of whatever winter brings to your part of the country. I hope all of you have seen some snow by now, but if you haven't yet, I suggest you keep on dancing the snow dance. Here in B.C., it has been a great winter with a lot of snow coming early and often. I have had fun XC skiing at Sovereign Lake and SilverStar, and I have telemark skied at SilverStar and Whitewater. My legs feel good, my heart and lungs are letting me push myself, and the smile on my face tells you all you need to know about how much I love winter. So keep dancing – the snow will come, wherever you are!Denys Lawrence, CANSI President
