Teaching Methods for skiing and snowboarding To learn something new or to improve your skiing or snowboarding skills first we will accurately assess your skills, abilities, strengths and weaknesses. This is not just how you ski or snowboard but also factors such as your motivation, lifestyle, time available and physical abilities. During the process we will discuss your objectives and clarify your goals. One very important part is that those goals must be attainable and you must be able to visualize yourself skiing or snowboarding at that level. I believe in setting you up for success. With realistic goals defined we can then formulate an effective plan using your learning style that will help you to snowboard or ski the way you wish. This may include unorthodox movements or diverse equipment such as snowblades. It is important that I tailor lessons to fit you learning pace and terrain comfort zone so that learning something new is easy for you. We learn new movements best on comfortable terrain then step it up to more challenging terrain when you are ready. I am frequently told that I am very patient by my more conservative guests. I take that as a great compliment. Observation of your skiing or snowboarding movements by a trained eye is necessary to helping you understand why things happen and how to apply other techniques. We can video tape your skiing and snowboarding so that you can see what you are doing and we can look for ways to become better.
