Course Description:

You've been training hard for the Level III Assessment and feel ready to hone your skills even further before committing to the real thing. This Level III prep series will focus on refinement and mastery of skills and tactics needed for high level skiing situations and accurate performance of demos and assessment activities. Each day will focus on one area of the Learning Connection Model. Please be advised that skiing "all terrain" is part of the curriculum and may include bump skiing and performing demos in challenging conditions. Teaching and People skills will be practiced within the context of on-hill Movement Analysis. Participants should expect opportunities for peer-to-peer coaching.
