Hi welcome to the most invaluable guide to your skiing enjoyment you can invest in.

I see so many people each year who come along to a lesson with no idea of what to expect from their lesson, this guide if used correctly will cover of these expectations and give you a head start to your skiing fun.

This guide is only to be used in conjunction with your lessons until such time that you are able to complete the task then this can be used as a refresher up to the point in your skiing that you have reached.

I am John Ryan an experienced Ski Instructor who has had comments made such as:

·        “I would buy your book”

·        “I would buy your DVD”

·        “I can not believe how advanced my son’s skiing has become in just 8 lessons” ( Through these 8 lessons I took my client from having never having a ski on his foot al the way through to carving, each lesson was an hour long)

·        “You are that busy we are having to book weeks in advance”

My method of teaching is Keep It Simple so you will not find any technical jargon such as Directional Rotation, Flexion and Extension. What does this all mean? How does it help your skiing? This guide is in plain English and easy to understand bite size chunks. I will take you from been able to ski in a straight line to carving the piste leaving those enviable train tracks behind you.

There is no wrong or right method to skiing therefore I will offer you alternative techniques where necessary. If one technique does not work then you can try another.

If you are starting your skiing career then I would recommend arranging private lessons setting yourself a goal for each private lesson as to what you want to achieve and sharing this with your instructor. A word to the wise though do not set yourself any more that 2 stages in one lesson for the first four stages. On a group lesson each stage will take at least an hour to complete, reading the stages you want to complete before you go on your lesson in conjunction with a private lesson could potentially halve this time therefore saving you money.

·        Stage 1: Ski in a straight line

·        Stage 2: Control your speed

·        Stage 3: Able to turns

·        Stage 4: Able to link your turns

·        Stage 5: Starting to parallel ski

·        Stage6: Able to parallel ski

I guarantee to update you with any further techniques that may help through my constant strive to improve the skiing way.
