The clinic includes on-hill training as well as indoor sessions. The clinic leader will lead you through a series of skiing/riding exercises, tasks and presentations to determine your ability level of skiing/riding, your aptitude for teaching and to generally get to know you. At the end of this four-day period, we will make a selection of those individuals we feel possess the skills needed to become Belleayre instructors. If selected, you will receive further training and will shadow actual classes in preparation for the season. You may take advantage of this program and all it has to offer even if you do not wish to be an instructor.
