What is the YES ski instructor program?

 

[jwaring]

its how you get your Level 1 ski instructor certificate.

 

[Broook]

12 weeks and you only come out with your level 1?

 

[Skiingsnow]

is that the one where u train 5 days a week and then get your level 1 at the end? if so you better fucking annihilate the exam, im currently csia 2 and i was amazed at how basic the course was, its basically just about how to structure a lesson. not that that is a bad thing, i just expected it to be harder

You will have a shit load of fun, the trainers are really cool guys and gals, make sure you listen and learn, if u use the information they give you wisely you will take huge amount out of it. and when they ask you to explain the skill of "pivoting" tell them that you "turn your femur inside your hip socket, which in tun develops separation", they will like that
