Description of service

The main reason I wanted to take ski instruction was to improve my level of skiing and gain a qualification that I could potentially use in the future. I love skiing and really wanted to improve at it then a friend of me advised me the best skiing academy around and there i was training there in next skiing season. The fees of $350 include 9 week course fees and rent for the accessories you need. Instructor took a group of 4-8 beginning skiers out on a green slope, taught basic turning, stopping (snowplow, not parallel), how to fall safely and reattach one's skis mid-slope.


Review of Service

The course was really uplifting. The quality of this instruction was phenomenal. The instructor was kind and polite and made a great first impression with all of us. The group that I went with was quite small with only about seven people in our group, but the group consisted of all levels of skiers, so teaching accordingly was difficult task but was accomplished successfully.


Tips

You must be attentive and practice more to be a good skier also i would recommend finding a lesson where all skiers are roughly the same age. While it may be important for some people to find other skiers with the same ability, I feel it is more important to find those with similar age because you will not feel as much pressure and you can feel like you are among friends when you are learning new things.
