Skiing brings together people from many different walks of life, giving swimmers and sailors a different perspective on the natural world and even the psychology of sport itself.Giving ski lessons to complete beginners, children who only just learnt to walk, or - hardest of all - adults who are bogged down by fear, requires a lot of patience and a relaxed environment where they can share their anxieties.I prefer a less formal teaching style to create a laid-back mood, offering lessons in English, French and Italian.
