Looking for an early season opportunity to refresh your skills? Want the excitement of the Snow Pro Jam, but don’t quite have the time to dive in? This condensed weekend event might just be the answer for you.
The Telemark Mini Academy is a great way to tele with a member of the Eastern Education Staff, prepare for the season, get some valuable feedback, and have fun doing it! A group’s specific focus will depend on the participant’s goals and typically include:
- Personal performance improvement.
- Exploring the technical, people, and teaching skills of the Learning Connection Model.
- Understanding cause and effect relationships as you continue to develop your movement analysis skills.
- Exploring varying tactics for success in different terrain and conditions.
Participants should arrive prepared to tele safely on green to groomed black terrain. Depending on trail availability and snow conditions, some groups may elect to venture into off-piste terrain, including moguls and glades. On the first morning of the event, the groups split by interests and pacing.
This event also offers the opportunity to obtain a Telemark Level I certification. Any participant pursuing certification must complete the online Professional Knowledge Exam prior to attending the event.
