YES Ski & Snowboard Improvement Whistler
Whistler is located on Canada's West Coast in beautiful British Columbia. A YES Ski improvement course in Whistler Blackcomb resort is the perfect way to take your skiing to new levels.
Whistler is voted the no#1 ski resort in North America year after year, and it's not hard to see why. With new pistes and lifts being created every year, ski course participants can find any type of terrain, for any skill level in abundance, and hone their skills in one of the world's most famous ski resorts! Whistler is the location of YES Tours' headquarters, and YES clients can benefit from some of the most extensive terrain and varied conditions available in North America. The mountain offers a little something for everyone with its generous powder days, steep terrain, phenomenal tree runs, corduroy grooming. Whistler Blackcomb is the resort that just keeps giving while you keep improving.
Each YES improvement program runs for a week. Arrival day is Saturday, allowing you the time to arrange any equipment you might need and get familiar with the resort.
First day on snow is Sunday which is a guiding day. A chance to warm up your legs and discover the mountains while the professional CSIA Level 4 ski pros evaluate your skiing and work out which group would be best suited to you for the week. On Sunday afternoon there's a Welcome après function, this is a great way to mingle with others on the course and learn about what we have in store for you both on and off snow for the next few days!
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday are our instruction days. You will train 4 hours per day with a hour extra for lunch break. Wednesday is a rest day which you can choose to free ski or take the time to enjoy one of Whistler's many off-snow activities. Each Tuesday your instructore film clients for the Video Analysis - Technical video is just one of the integral ingredients of the YES recipe for success. Being able to watch yourself will strengthen your mental imagery to improve your technique and tactics.
Friday afternoon is the end of week après function where you will get to see yourself on the big screen!
You can choose to join as many weeks together as you like. Most people come for 2 weeks while others with more time available come for more.
