Get in Ski Shape
Don’t wait for the first snowfall to build up your strength for the slopes— Red Rocks Amphitheatre hosts a four-week Snow-Shape Winter Fitness Series starting Saturday, September 14, tailored to snow sports enthusiasts. Focused on stability, endurance, and total-body strength, this preseason conditioning helps you build the muscle you need to start the season injury-free. Even better, you’ll be sweating it out with crisp mountain air, a community of your fellow powder chasers, and stunning red rock views to keep you motivated.
