Quotes:

“The trip as a whole was an amazing experience, and one I would definitely do again if the chance arose! I have made many new friends in the process, where a number of us have already planned to go on a holiday together. The training that was given out in New Zealand was outstanding, and all of the trainers deserve a big thank you for their commitment in making us all ski/snowboard instructors. The location of the course was excellent – so different from the European scenery and way of life. If you love scenery you have to do a 15,000 ft sky dive over Lake Wanaka – it was pure breathtakingly beautiful”.

Andrew Davidson, Cardrona, New Zealand 2007

“I would advise anyone who is thinking about doing this type of course to go for it! YOU WILL LOVE IT! General tuition and improving my own skiing ability has been fantastic!”

Kate Royle, Lake Louise 2007

“Lake Louise is a skiers dream with all the terrain you could ever ask for. Conditions were consistently amazing”.

James Hopkins, Lake Louise 2007

In one word, immense! I had the best three months of my life doing what I love every day in one of the world's most prestigious resorts. Everyone’s skiing improved in all aspects of the sport; on piste, in powder, steeps, moguls or in the park.

Toby Read, Whistler 2007

"At the risk of sounding melodramatic, this course has profoundly changed my life for the better, the most amazing 3 months of my life, and friends that I'm sure I will know for the rest of my life".

Gary Meredith, Whistler 2004
