About

Over 30 years of snow sports instructing experience. I started my career in Vermont ski instructing for 5 seasons at Mt. Ascutney. After relocating to the Windham area I initially taught skiing full time my first season along with coaching an Adult Program ski group. In the mid 90’s I crossed over to snowboarding. I coached the Windham Mtn. snowboard team at 7 USASA National Competitions. These days I am focusing on instructor training and coaching an Adult Program snowboarding group. To this day I still get excited about teaching a beginner in the morning and seeing them later in the day up on the hill enjoying the sport I love.

Michael is a snowboarding genius and really understands what each person needs at whatever level you may be at. His years of experience and knowledge have helped pushed my boarding to a new level. He even helped me out by changing a new stance with my bindings. He went above and beyond the lesson and always kept it fun and safe. If you are looking to shred Windham booking Mike is critical in your success. Stop reading this and go shred with Mike!

Mr. Swanson is a gifted instructor equipped with the ability to both analyze and communicate effectively to his students. For me, this resulted in tremendous improvement in both my skill level on the board and my confidence when riding. I am looking forward to riding with him and learning more from him come next season!
