Before the tan!

As a Director of World Class Skiing I thoroughly enjoy my life, meeting people, skiing with people and helping them improve. To see someone ‘s face after a great run is enough to keep me happy.

Skiing a mountain and have the sun shining is just the best feeling,

making some turns, balancing against natures forces makes you feel alive.

Today as I write this blog I am getting ready to go to France where I will be working with my good friend John Thomas in his Ski School in Vallandry, near Les Arcs. Great skiing and a very friendly resort. Two weeks there and then off to run a ski instructors course for a week. Then home for 5 days to get my thoughts together before I head off out again on a long stint in the Alps. Skiing in France, Switzerland, Italy and Austria. Looks like an exciting winter!

Will miss my family, that’s the drawback sadly. Still, needs must, as my son is growing and eating us out of house and home so to keep the cereal on the breakfast table I need to keep ski teaching!

Due to demand, we have a special, limited numbers’ course for those of you who are either looking at taking a BASI Level 1 or progressing onto a Level 2, or above. This week of intensive training will include video feedback and up to the minute information on the latest requirements, from a BASI trainer.

If you are considering developing your skiing to a higher level, whether for a BASI certificate or for personal development then this course is for you.

All aspects of your performance will be explored and re evaluated. You will be assessed and given ‘honest’ feedback on areas you need to develop. This will help you gain a greater insight into your skiing and help you obtain your BASI qualification, if that’s the route you decide to go for.

The course will consist of approximately 22 hours conducted during the week.
