About
I am a certified ski instructor with a passion for high adventure sports.I am also a certified skydive instructor.I teach skiers in the winter and train skydivers in the summer.I have been through countless classes learning how to teach skiing over the years. I have several world records in skydiving. I love to share these passions.
Over the past 40 years I have witnessed many technological advancements in equipment and only small advancements in training. Watching folks spend long periods of time (and a lot of money ) trying to gain expertise bothered me.Why learn things that would be changed to something different later on in your training. So I began to learn and develop new and more direct methods of teaching.These methods have have drastically reduced the time spent in lessons( and the money spent). I believe there should be more time spent having fun with friends and family. When everyone is at the same level of performance the enjoyment and memories increase exponentially.We work hard all week, whether in school or at our profession and when it is time for recreation it should be fun. The better you get ,the more fun you have. The quicker you get there the longer the enjoyment.
