Events & Clinics - October 2014

PSIA - BEYOND LEVEL 3 - SEPARATION (Part 2)
Thursday, October 9st, 2014 at 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Westside Location - 231 Junction Rd., Madison WI
Join us for a private, after-hours event with drinks, light bites and some tunes… Presenters - Bill Davis PSIA L3, Matt McGinn PSIA L2. Bill & Matt bring decades of ski experience, thousands of hours of big mountain teaching experience, hundreds of hours of intermountain clinic and ski college experiences, and a racing background to share. Audience participation last session contributed a wealth of knowledge - from new ski instructors to PSIA Central examiners. Our goal – improve your skiing and teaching.
Power Point guided “Beyond PSIA L3 ski discussion -question and answer session.” First session on August 28th we covered Stance (part I). This next presentation will build on principals from session one with a primary focus on Separation (part II of our 4 part series). This will be a high level interactive ski discussion aimed directly at PSIA Instructors interested in out West; All Mountain, All Terrain skiing. Principals apply directly to racers and advanced general public skiers as well. We now move from just standing on skis “riding and reacting” taking what skis give you – to taking control with anticipation and moving purposefully - supercharging micro movements from a managed balanced position – movements that create a cause and effect on skis for performance. We are excited to present this material and are looking forward to your contributions through question, answer, and discussion format.
