Welcome to a weekend at beautiful Nøsen dedicated to the joy of skiing, deep breathing, and yoga.

i want to join

This is a weekend where we combine lessons in cross-country skiing technique with traditional hatha yoga. The goal is to give you more joy on skis through better technique in both classic and skating. There will be lessons in both styles, and you can join both, choose one of them, or simply enjoy your own ski trip in the mountain surroundings.

The weekend is perfect for those who want to improve their skiing technique, whether you have a little or a lot of previous cross-country skiing experience. Everyone will receive individual feedback regardless of their level. Basic skiing skills are required to join the technique lessons.

At the same time, we practice traditional hatha yoga. Every yoga class concludes with meditation, which is the very core of the practice. We will also host a breathing workshop where you will learn how to use your breath as a tool in both activity and rest. The weekend is suitable for all levels of yoga.

You will return home with increased skiing enjoyment, specific tasks to continue working on in the ski tracks, and a conscious relationship with your breath.

The retreat is open to adults and teenagers over the age of 13. You must bring your own cross country skiing equipment.

Join us for a weekend full of fresh mountain air, nutritious food, and a great atmosphere.

Welcome to Nøsen!

About Helene Berger Mulholland

My name is Helene, and I have extensive experience (10+ years) as a cross-country skiing instructor, alongside a background as a competitive skier participating for several years in the Norwegian National Junior Championships.

Additionally, I’m a certified yoga and meditation teacher (500 hours) with a daily personal practice for many years. I’m passionate about sharing traditional yoga with the world, focusing on breath and meditation, in addition to the physical poses.

Here is what previous participants say about my ski courses:

"Now I get great flow on my skis, and skiing is much more fun."

"I got a lot out of the course with Helene. She explains things thoroughly and gives personalized feedback."

"I should have signed up for a technique lesson much sooner. Skate skiing feels like dancing on skis!"
