PERFORMANCE SKI COACHING IN CHAMONIX

Its not ski school how many people would imagine it. What we do at All Mountain Performance is very different to a typical ski school experience.

Our ski coaching can dramaticaly improve a skier's level by developing all aspects of their performance in a variety of conditions and terrain. By use of  more modern ski coaching methods involving not only development of skiing technique but also improving tactical, physical and psycological skills. In fact these 4 aspects of  performance are aparent in  every sport. More often than not, ski schools and ski instructors in the past have focused very much on a technique focused aproach. which actually is only a quarter of an over all performance.

Imagine these four aspects of  performance in sport.

                                Technique, Tactical, Psycological, physical.  

Now imagine your skiing performance having developed all 4 aspects through stratigically designed exercises and powerfull performance enhancing drills.

It is the job of a good ski coach to be able to quickly identify which performance aspect needs develping the most in any given situation or task. For example, let's take someone who is working on improving their performance skiing in the bumps.  Let's say that the skier's bumps technique is already pretty good, as are their  tactical skills. The skier is also not so scared of the bumps, so, psycologicaly is not having trouble - but, finding it hard when the bumps become close together. The pupil is showing that the trouble he/she is having, lies in the fact that they are finding it hard to make fast, agile movements.

In this situation, a good ski coach will work on improving the physical performance aspect as it is the weakest one of the four aspects, and more specifically to bumps skiing, quick agile movements will need to be developed in short turns. This can be done outside of bumps on a smooth, not-too-difficult run before reaplying the overall performance back to the bumps.

The result is wow!  25% better bumps skiing in one quick lesson!

It may be that one of the other of the four aspects may need developing, and as we ski around the mountain, your ski coach will improve your skiing performance, providing you with just the right information at just the right time.

Modern ski coaching has no boundries or limits. The possibilities for your improvment are endless as there are so many ways you can improve. Its not all technique!
