Ski Performance Course
A four week course designed to supercharge your skiing. Each 3 hour session will focus on a different theme, giving you a better understanding and better technique. Video analysis is used each week to enable to see exactly what you look like and further your improvement.
The four sessions are:
Short Radius Turns - Tighter turns ideal for tackling steeper and narrower terrain with confidence and finesse.
Moguls - Learning to cope with, and even enjoy, bumps!
Central Theme - Break your skiing down to the very basics of ski technique and develop a greater understanding of what you are doing and how you can improve.
Carving - Get a taste for speed and find out what you and your equipment are really capable of by getting to grips with the edges of your skis.
Each session can be booked individually for £60 or the whole course for £200 [Please call our call centre to obtain the full course discount]
The performance course is held on Sundays at 7pm. Please arrive from 6.30pm and meet your instructor upstairs in the SNO!bar, once you have collected your tickets.

Just to add that everyone actually meets in the 50/50 bar next to the ticket desks and clothes rental desks.

Surley Central theme should be first so you understand what you are doing in the other sessions

stewart woodward, I've no idea, I haven't been.

|
Who is running the courses? local instructors or a 'guest' instructor?
|

stewart woodward,
Not Necessarily. The course is aimed at anyone who is looking at improving their performance not just Instructors or budding instructors.
Therefore if central theme is not for you, you can have additional training in anyone of the other disciplines

Super Eagle, yeah, but regardless, if central theme is what I think it is, it's pretty foundational to the rest - it's not like I take a lesson out and think "well, they're nowhere near centred but may as well work on their edging".

DaveC, No becuase the central theme modual is basically for those who either want to teach or are already teaching and covers mainly your ability to deliver lesson plans and technical understanding of the central theme along with ability to perform the drills correctly.
