Ski Coaching Courses

Fernie, BC

Your Winter Starts Here

Covid 2020 has been a strange and unsettling year for everyone. It's time to change the record.

Established in 2002, our award-winning ski coaching courses take place in the renowned powder mecca of Fernie, BC and offer a structured, rewarding and super-fun way of spending this winter.

Whether you’re looking for a unique ski holiday (1, 2, 3 weeks) or have enough time for a once-in-a-lifetime career break or gap year experience (1, 2, 3 months) we have a course for you. Alongside a group of like-minded skiers, advance your skills, and take your skiing to new heights.

It's time for an adventure, to have some fun, to focus on the things we love, and to meet some new people. And above all, it's time to feel the life-affirming sense of fulfilment, purpose and stoke that's enjoyed when we perform at a new level on snow.
