How We Train
The Rookie Academy is just that
... an Academy dedicated to the craft of ski and snowboard instructing.
The Rookie Academy is run by and filled with people for whom skiing and
boarding is a life’s work.
Rookie Trainers are hand picked
and our courses designed to help you get the most out of your time at
the Academy. These practical, industry driven courses cover a
comprehensive range of technical skills and teaching techniques. At the
Academy expect to:
- Ski or board a lot! Rookies typically clock up 150,000 vertical meters of skiing over a 9 to 10 week course
- Learn the art of movement analysis and develop your eye for spotting good and bad technique in yourself and your students
- Improve your physical and
snow-specific fitness and learn how to protect your most valuable asset
(your body) by keeping yourself in the best physical condition for your
on-snow career
- Develop your own network of snow-professionals as you become part of the Rookie Alumni
- A season in a true ski town
We earned and build our
international reputation by producing a consistently high standard of
instructors. Our record is unrivalled and every season we aim to keep it
that way by bringing back the best instructors and developing our
courses to be the most practical, in-depth and industry-appealing on the
planet.  Book your course |
