About Us

Our program is goal-oriented and outcome-based. All coaches are working from a specific curriculum progression designed to produce measurable achievement in a shorter period of time. The all-day lesson format allows
us to introduce new skills in the morning and then use guided free skiing coaching in the afternoon to practice in a fun, less structured environment.

The outdoor on-snow sessions are paired with indoor technical sessions designed to foster deeper understanding and provide a foundation for future self guided coaching. During the indoor sessions we assess boot fit,
stance alignment, and present the latest developments in
women's specific equipment.
