Additional Event Details:

Description:
This casual-yet-rich in-person seminar is built around three video clips (Level I, II, and III suitability) to promote thoughtful discussion, analysis, and shared insights. Participants gather in a relaxed setting--complete with coffee and donuts--to deepen their movement analysis skills while watching, discussing, and deconstructing skier performance in a supportive group environment.
Not everyone is required to present--ideal for those who learn best by listening, observing, and contributing when inspired.


Prerequisites:
Open to all instructors. Content is tailored to match certification levels I through III.
