Course Description:
This multi-disciplinary course explores the practical application of anatomy and biomechanics to improve movement analysis and technical understanding for snowsports instructors. Through a blend of guided discussions, interactive presentations, and movement-based activities, participants will explore the relationships between anatomical function, technique, and performance. The course supports instructors in identifying movement inefficiencies and applying principles of flexibility, strength, and motor control to enhance student outcomes across Alpine, Snowboard, and Telemark disciplines.
Learning Experiences:
Specific activities will vary depending on the group’s needs but typically include:
• Facilitated discussions on musculoskeletal function and its relationship to skiing/riding movements
• Interactive analysis of video performances across disciplines
• Dryland-based movement exploration to understand joint and muscular function
• Scenario-based group work to build technical understanding
•Review and application of discipline-specific fundamentals through an anatomical lens
Learning Outcomes:
By the end of this course, successful participants will be able to:
• Describe key anatomical structures and how they relate to common skiing/riding movements
• Identify movement inefficiencies using anatomical and biomechanical principles
• Communicate functional movement insights using shared language across disciplines
• Apply discipline-specific fundamentals to observed performances with anatomical awareness
Prerequisite(s): Discipline Level I
Recommended Learning Resources: • PSIA-AASI Technical Manuals (Alpine, Snowboard, Telemark)
Equipment/Materials Needed: • Note taking materials
