The Canadian Association of Nordic Ski Instructors (CANSI) is a non-profit organization designed to promote and advance the sports of cross country and telemark skiing in Canada through the provision of high quality instruction.
CANSI offers four levels of certification in Cross Country techniques, and candidates who successfully complete a Level I Cross Country are entitled to all the benefits of the association (liability coverage, teaching materials, pro deals).
We greatly appreciate donations of new or used skis & equipment, trail-clearing services, healthy snacks, and old photos or memorabilia. Get in touch if you can provide any of these items!
