MOUNTAIN BIKING

We mountain bike 10-20 times and have the thrill of riding on the mountain. This will build great cardio and muscular endurance, along with being an intense core workout and building self confidence. It will also give the kids uncountable opportunities to make decisions while they dodge and roll over rocks. Athletes will need comfortable clothes and their own montain or BMX bike. One of these sessions will be a bike maintenance class.

MULTI SPORT EXPERIENCE

We know it is hard to be on multiple sports teams during the same season, let alone start a new sport competitively after the age of 9.

Wasatch Outdoor Sports gives an athlete the chance to develop a variety of physical skills which can best be developed through a diverse sporting experience. This approach develops an overall more rounded athlete.

There are undoubted physiological benefits to a diverse sports experience, but there are also huge psychological benefits to trying new things. Learning new skills and just having fun exploring builds self confidence. Outdoor sports can teach us many life lessons.

Participating in these activities have numerous lifelong benefits. This is why WASATCH OUTDOOR SPORTS was born.
