Sportable is partnering with Therapeutic Adventures at Massanutten to offer adaptive skiing and snowboarding lessons for our athletes on March 1, 2026! Whether it’s your first time on the slopes or you’re returning with experience, this program creates an inclusive space for athletes to learn and enjoy the thrill of winter sports alongside experienced instructors and adaptive equipment designed to meet a wide range of needs.
We will offer two session times, but space is very limited. Each session can accommodate:
- 3 stand-up skiers
- 1 snowboarder
- 1 sit-down skier
Registration will be on a first-come, first-served basis, depending upon the availability of the equipment each athlete needs.
If you’ve ever wanted to try skiing or snowboarding or want to get back out there -we’d love to have you join us!
