Beginning Babes - Private class (1 on 1)
Gain some confidence and get outside at your own speed with this one-on-one version of the course!
Service Description
In our private Intro to Hiking course, you'll do an online course at your own pace, watching fun videos and answering quizzes. We'll do a quick 30 minute Zoom meetup so that you can "meet" your guide prior to our day hike, which will take place at an undisclosed location bright and early on a day that works with both our schedules (more flexible scheduling!), rain or shine! In this course, you'll learn: what to wear, what to pack, how to pick trails that will work for you, how to be a thoughtful and respectful hiker, and how to be safe and confident when you hit the trails! This course means that you get lots of one-on-one time with the guide, and the chance to build confidence without the pressure of keeping up with a group. You'll gain insight about our beautiful forests and geological features in addition to tips and tricks to keep you safe, comfy, and gazing about in awe when you're out in the woods. All levels are welcome, keeping in mind that our dayhike will be up to 4-5 hours in duration (including breaks for oohing, aahhing, and snacking!), with between 150m and 350m elevation gain over the course of the day. Total distance will be between 5km and 10km. Dayhike location will be chosen based on participant's experience and fitness level, so no stress! Participants will need to be able to drive themselves to our meetup spot and we will then caravan to the trailhead. Dayhike will take place somewhere between Vancouver and Mission (in the Lower Mainland). Here's what's included in your Beginning Babes Intro to Hiking course: - comprehensive online course with fun videos and quizzes - quick Zoom meetup to break the ice and say hello - 4-5 hour dayhike in a beautiful location with lots to see and enjoy! - optional post-hike hangout at a nearby local coffee spot to chat about how it went and ask any other questions you might have - lots of resources to peruse after the course is done so that you can keep hiking with confidence and joy! - access to a Babe Alumnae community page so you can connect and share with your fellow Babes **As we will be conferring to find a date that works for both of us, when booking this service, select any available date, and then on the booking form, indicate a range of dates that will work for you - the date you select on the calendar is just a placeholder to complete the checkout process.**
