The Disabled Skiers Association of BC is a registered Canadian Charity, working with hundreds of volunteers to provide opportunities for all persons with a disability to enjoy the freedom and therapeutic benefits of skiing and snowboarding.
Based in Vancouver since 1973, the DSABC has been working with our local volunteer delivery organizations in 11 rural and urban BC communities to provide learn-to-ski programs for students of all ages with a variety of disabilities in Adaptive Alpine Skiing and Snowboarding disciplines.
Disabilities include; amputee: autism; brain injury; cerebral palsy; cognitive delay; down syndrome; hearing impaired; visually impaired; spinal cord injury and all others.
The DSABC also provides clinics for volunteer instructors; clinics for coaches and officials; learn to race programs and opportunities for competitive racing at all levels, with opportunities to become a member of DSABC's BC Para-Alpine Ski Team.
Our Nationally Certified instructors and volunteers work one on one with their students to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy skiing or snowboarding as a part of an active and healthy lifestyle.
