2026 Ski Improvement Clinic details announced, registrations open

2026 marks 50 years of CSP Mountain Division ski and snowboard clinics

The CSP Mountain Division is very pleased to announce the details of, and registration information for, the 2026 Canadian Ski Patrol Mountain Division Ski Improvement Clinic at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort.

The 2026 clinics will mark 50 years of Mountain Division supporting ski and snowboard skills improvement. The very first CSP Mountain Division Ski Improvement Clinic was held in 1977!

The 2026 clinics will follow the model first offered three years ago, with Mountain Division offering three clinic weeks:

• Week 1: January 18 to 23, 2026.
• Week 2: February 1 to 6, 2026.
• Week 3: February 22 to 27, 2026.

The venue is world class, the instruction is superb, and the social atmosphere is unmatched. This event, now held for five decades, has attracted hundreds of satisfied CSP members and their friends and family from across Canada and around the world.

Full event details and registration information can be found here.

The clinic program includes four days of group lessons in either skiing or snowboarding, five days of lift access and a celebratory banquet on the Thursday night, all at the world-class venue of Kicking Horse Mountain Resort. Attendees receive group ski or snowboard instruction for more than 20 hours across four days, in groups of comparable competencies to optimize learning. There’s a full and fun social agenda, and attendees also have access to great discounts on food, retail goods, fine dining, and many other offerings. This event is unparalleled.

We are working on some special features to mark the 50 years of the clinic.

Program pricing is incredibly competitive, with the full adult program package of lifts, lessons and the banquet coming in at a very reasonable $750, a modest increase from 2025 to reflect higher supplier costs. Pricing for ski-in, ski-out accommodation (booked separately) is up slightly from that offered for the 2025 clinic, making this an incredible bargain. Accommodation pricing is the same for all three weeks.

Please make sure to register early to take advantage of this great event that brings patrollers, their friends, and their families together from across Canada for some superb instruction at an amazing mountain amid a terrific social atmosphere. This event has sold out going back to 2015; in 2025 weeks 1 and 2 sold out by July; Week 1 by October. Register early to avoid disappointment.
