Q. What's the difference between a Snoworks iSKI performance course and ski school?

A. Traditionally, a ski school service is designed to meet the needs of skiers 'en-masse' coming to the specific resort, often provided as a 'package' of lessons designed by the national ski teaching system - which can also vary greatly between each country. Because of the necessarily high number of clientele coming through each day, a national standard teaching system is often the norm as the most productive and commercial solution to get through all the lessons. Many people say that ski school can be a 'processed' experience.

A Snoworks ski course aspires to differ greatly, attending to each individual client's needs and providing a programme of personalised ski coaching and goal setting, rather than just general instruction provided by the system – more like having a personal trainer, than being a member of a gym class! Course programmes are also consistently delivered whatever country we're going to!

Snoworks course programmes are designed with the goal of efficiently being able to ski all snow and mountain terrains, and developing the necessary skills required. Many ski schools are reputed to still be focussing on body shape and 'how you look' on skis, which we believe greatly narrows the available spectrum of skiing experiences!!

NOT JUST ANOTHER SKI TEACHING SYSTEM?

Q. I've been taught by many ski instructors in the past – all have different opinions on how to ski which has left me confused. Is Snoworks simply going to confuse things further?

A. Because Snoworks teaches 'all-mountain skills' rather than 'skiing techniques', your perspective of skiing will move away from stringing together technical theories and ideas, to the science of skiing and learning a specific skill for the terrain you're skiing on. There are hundreds of ways of getting down a mountain, but only a limited number of ways of being an effective skier. Snoworks snow, ski and mountain knowledge (regardless of the country you're skiing in!) is our key difference.
