We think you're going to find this area of the YOUR SKI COACH website very interesting and valuable. It's jam packed with valuable information on ski technique for skiers of every level. Not only do we provide many in depth articles about specific skiing skills and learning to ski better, we also offer many short and easy to follow ski tips/lessons you can take right to the snow and use to improve.
This section fills another important role. It acts as support for our Building Blocks DVD Instructional Series.

Within the series is a wealth of technical information and skill building ski technique that covers the full spectrum of the learning journey. The volume of drills and training exercises for skiing in Building Blocks is massive.

We'll be adding new articles and expanding our library of content on a regular basis.
New stuff
Some of our students have wanted to take summaries of the DVDs to the hill. So now we are making drill cards available for the Basic Balance and Basic Edging DVDs. Laminated pocket sized cards with summary of the drill, hints, cautions and variations. One drill per side. Two per card. Take just the drills you want to work on, to the ski hill with you, in your pocket.
