About

Found skiing in my mid 20s and it has slowly built into my winter obsession, especially since I have learned how to share this obsession and experiences with others through teaching.   I have skied at 28 different resorts across the globe from steep above tree line bowls to icy groomers in the Midwest.  Even in bad weather or lousy conditions there is no such thing as a bad day on skis!

Beginner - Explorers/Freeride Holiday Camp Ski

My 6 year old son had the opportunity to have Michael as an instructor during the Explorers Holiday Camp and I came away impressed. He did a great job keeping a 6 year old enjoying himself for 2 full days (morning and afternoon), getting him comfortable on the terrain, learning the basics of skiing, and by the end he was comfortable heading down the bunny slope, unassisted, able to control his speed with turns.

Beginner - PE Program Ski (Elementary School)

It was a super fun day! I'm in my 40's and only skied once when I was a teenager. I was VERY NERVOUS. Michael did a great job putting me at ease and making the day fun. He was able to explain the mechanics and teach me skills to feel comfortable on the course. I would definitely ski with Michael again.
