I really enjoyed the ski skills course as a way of getting me back to the level I was before my accident. Getting back to basics was helpful but slightly frustrating at times. Matt handled the group really well despite difficulties with the weather.
Jenny is a wonderful coach. She was knowledgeable and quickly assessed my needs and areas I needed to improve. She has a lovely approach to teaching, gently suggesting that I could be stretched further. I very much enjoyed the week I had with Jenny, enjoying her companionship as well as her expertise in progressing my skiing skills and confidence in more challenging conditions and terrain.
Dave was patient and pointed out points for improvement and helped me gain my confidence. I will certainly be back for the next season and hopefully ski more adventurously. Thank you Snoworks for the advice and amazing tuition.
