Girls with Grit Adventure Co

Girls with Grit Adventure Co Women's ski, mountain bike, fly fishing, river + lake SUP + adventure clinics, lessons + retreats in the PNW.

My goal is to encourage and help women & kids (my husband, Andy, coached the men's side through our over-arching coaching company, MADE) to be the strongest and most inspiring versions of themselves - mentally and physically. I do this through providing a positive and supportive environment where clients can learn the foundations and skills of mountain biking, can hone their intermediate-expert skills & increase their confidence while skiing, and to build a strong skill set to stand up paddle board on lakes and rivers - as well as create training & nutrition plans to get you out trail running and reaching your health and wellness goals. I also offer action/portrait photography sessions - pricing and package details upon request through our other company, Mahre Media.

My Top 3 Tips for Skiing in Heavy, Deep Powder 🎿

💥Tip #1
Keep your hands where you can see them. Once you drop an arm, you are more likely to get pulled into the back seat.

💥Tip #2
Momentum is your friend. During all of these clips, we were skiing in VERY heavy, thick, deep powder and therefore, the amount I turned was much less than I would in lighter powder. Momentum is a key element in giving us the ability to float on top of the powder instead of sinking all of the way down to the bottom.

💥Tip #3
Keep that forward pressure on the front of your boots - this “forward position” starts as we first flex forward at our ankles, then our knees — and then our hips will follow. In these videos I may not be as aggressively forward as I am in light, fluffy powder, but I am still forward, ensuring my ankles are flexed forward which then allows my shins to be pressing on the front of my boots at all times, THUS putting me in my aggressive, athletic, forward stance. This position is where we find the highest level of control over our skis.

Finding your balance point on your skis in deep, heavy powder can take some time - but like everything else, can practice makes better!!

To us, teaching women the skills they need to progress safely + with confidence on skis, mountain bikes, on horseback, at the range and on the river is at the heart of everything that we do.

Today and every day, we support women. We do our best to empower them & give them the strength, support and courage to raise their own bar, no matter their age or what fears that have been held them back in the past.

Happy International Women’s Day. Here’s to another year of getting after it with the ladies. 🤘

Do you want your kiddos to gain the edge control necessary to stop on a dime with their skis parallel? And to eventually have the skill set to ski steep and technical terrain in control?

This drill will help with both of those goals — and builds upon the side slipping drill that we posted a few weeks back. The goal is to get our legs to work together and to really dial in our overall edge control — no matter how advanced or skilled we are, this skill always has room to be honed even more.🤘

This video was the first time that I had shown and even described this drill to Huck + Ryder. As you can see, it’s difficult to do! In fact, most ladies in my Women’s Clinics struggle with this drill — even the gals in the advanced/expert clinics. But with a little patience and practice, once done correctly this drill can be a game changer and another stellar tool in your skiing tool belt.

Here’s some tips for practicing this drill.
💥Make sure your skis are hip width apart.
💥Get into your athletic stance - and don’t forget to pressure the front of your boots with your shins.
💥Keep your hands in front of you.
💥Slowly release both of your edges at the same time.
💥Then (gently at first), roll your ankles into the hill and apply pressure to your uphill edges.
💥Repeat.

Stay tuned for a reel showing how this drill relates further to advanced/expert level skiers — for now, add it to your “ski homework” for the next day you are on the hill. It’s my warm up every single time I go ski.

Happy Monday ❄️

✨I’ve been getting a lot of questions about the mittens and outerwear the boys and and I wear so here’s that info! for the gloves and mittens and for the outerwear. 10/10 recommend both! We wouldn’t wear them if we didn’t love them or believe in these amazing companies.

March is just around the corner - and it’s the last month of the 2026 season that we’ll be coaching at ❄️🫶

❄️Our Intermediate Women’s Ski Clinic on the 3rd is perfect for those ladies that want to build a strong foundation that will help them get off of the groomers with confidence and control.

❄️The Advanced Women’s Ski Clinic on March 10th is for the gals that already ski black diamonds (and even some double black diamonds) but want to hone their form, build their confidence and learn skills that will transition directly over to advanced/expert terrain and conditions.

❄️And for the women that are able to get on up to on consecutive Wednesdays, our Progression Series is the best way to build skills + confidence over 3, 2-hour clinics. The March Progression Series dates are the 4th, 11th and 18th - the Intermediate Progression Clinics are held from 9-11 and the Advanced Progression Clinics are held from 11:30-1:30.

❄️Try out a pair or two of our Women’s Demo Skis — these skis are AMAZING and are available for clients to use for free at all of our clients.
