"I had an excellent experience taking my very first xc ski lesson with Lynda. From our initial online interaction, she was responsive, professional and knowledgeable. It was evident that safety and fun were important components of our session.
She was patient with this newbie and provided such a personalized lesson. My movements and strides were assessed and analyzed (even on video), which resulted in specific, individualized feedback...with lots of encouragement (which I needed since I am not very coordinated...lol). Oh, she is also very friendly and easy to talk to (important qualities with private lessons).
Highly recommend. I will use her for future adventures again."
