Academy

Duration: 3hrs (from 3 – 5 days)

Academy – For junior skiers that have progressed through our junior groups. Achieving the top ski awards of 8 or 9 star awards. Our Academy groups work on the continued development of specialized skills that diversify our sport. These skills allow us to travel further, safer, and over more varied terrain. Which covers the main strands of skiing. Piste Performance, Steeps, Off Piste, Bumps, and Freestyle.

Skiers will develop mountain awareness and an understanding of safety procedures. Becoming aware of the use of safety equipment. All of which creates a well rounded performer in modern skiing. This respect for the environment that we ski in, and the skills we use is so often overlooked. But it is the fundamental piece that keeps us safely enjoying the mountains.
