Innovative tourism operators are always looking for new ways to attract both existing and new guests. In 2013, Mike Wiegele Helicopter Skiing in Blue River introduced Health and Wellness Week, guided by the company’s very own guru, L.A.-based Tony Horton — inventor of the famed PX90 fitness system.
It’s back for another year. Health and Wellness Week takes place from Jan. 4 to 11, and offers both full- and half-day heli-ski packages which feature daily workout sessions with Horton. Additional fitness options such as Spin, Stretch, Joga (yoga for jocks,”with Jana Webb), Meditation and Qigong sessions, Cross-Country Skiing and Snowshoeing — will round out your fitness and outdoor experience.
For an additional charge, guests can book chiropractic and acupressure sessions along with the highly sought after post-ski day massage. Wiegele’s Executive Chef Toni Spori will offer additional vegan and vegetarian dishes and feature highly nutritious lunches for those who are in the mountains. Having said that, “your appetite will be on fire after skiing as much vertical as your group can endure.”
If your New Year’s resolution is to be healthier or improve your ski technique, this week is the ideal fit for you. Seats are filling up fast. There is no better way to mix powder skiing and health and wellness than to join Horton and the dedicated Wiegele team.
