Redfeather School Snowshoe Program
Staying active in the winter is not only fun but also essential for both physical and mental well-being.
At Redfeather, we believe snowshoeing is a fantastic way for people of all ages and abilities to stay active during the winter months—after all, "If you can walk, you can snowshoe." That's why we've developed the Redfeather Snowshoe Fitness Program for schools. This program offers educators, students, and families the opportunity to improve their health while enjoying the beauty of the winter outdoors..
Consider these compelling facts:
Snowshoeing is one of the fastest-growing outdoor activities, with participation increasing by 12% during the 2020/2021 season—mainly because it’s fun!
Snowshoeing burns 45% more calories than walking, running, or playing the same activities without snowshoes.
It’s an activity anyone can enjoy—if you can walk, you can snowshoe. Our “easy on, easy off” binding makes it simple for kids to get started, hassle-free.
With no maintenance required, snowshoes are easy to store when not in use.
Additionally, snowshoeing is an excellent cross-training activity for sports like track, cross-country, soccer, and football. Studies at major universities have shown that athletes who train with snowshoes significantly improve their aerobic capacity compared to those who don't.
Redfeather provides special pricing on an assortment of snowshoes just for schools. We provide not only the snowshoes, but also included is our “Light As a Feather” snowshoe curriculum for physical education instructors and teachers to use to make snowshoeing a fun, active, and creative activity for every child involved. It’s a ready to roll physical activity program.
