Join us in the land of powder dreams, where the annual average snowfall exceeds 10 metres and the powder is among the lightest and driest in the world. With local guides to show you the best runs and our expert coaches to help you perfect your ski technique, you`ll visit the legendary resorts of Red Mountain, Whitewater, Fernie and Kicking Horse. To top things off, you`ll enjoy comfortable accommodation, visits to several natural hotsprings, and an optional day of unforgettable cat-skiing.
INSTRUCTION
The coaching program for our Ski Canada Trip is especially designed for intermediate skiers who wish to improve their all-round technique, especially their freeride and powder skills. Our expert instructors will work with you to develop such skills as carving, powder skiing, and skiing steeps. For those who are interested, there will also be opportunities to receive freestyle instruction. You will be encouraged to ski with increasing speed and confidence, to push your performance, and to optimize your style and technique. All levels will receive video coaching and workshops on such topics as on-mountain safety and tuning and waxing your skis. Presently, we do not offer telemark instruction.

Michael (Belgium), 2x returning guest: The trip was brilliant, awesome, inspirational, reviving, fun. It was absolutely the best skiing trip I`ve ever done. When I signed up I was thinking `even if half of what they claim is true, it`ll be amazing`. I was a bit scared of expecting too much and getting disappointed, but in reality it was better than anything I had hoped for. I even caught myself dreaming I was practicing a 180 and a 360.
