‘The ski coach in your pocket’
SkiCoachingOnline was created for anyone looking to further their skiing. Providing both tailored individual coaching, along with a comprehensive instructional eBook to store on your mobile phone or tablet and utilised whilst on the ski slopes. No internet connection necessary.
how it works
eBook
Using an eBook reader app such as ‘Books’ (iPhone) or ‘Infinity Reader’ (Android) to store the eBooks on the phone.
The books include videos and images to enable the skier to have the appropriate information at hand on the slopes when needed. No internet connection necessary.
For the instructional eBook, simply purchase, download and it is on your phone.
Individual Coaching
Choose which coaching package you would like here.
Send a video of your skiing to us. We will converse about what goals you would like to achieve.
Our coach will assess and create an individual plan to help achieve your goal.
This will be sent as a video to be watched whilst on the slopes, easily accessible via a mobile device.
why
Two things came together to create SkiCoachingOnline.
Firstly, many friends and family over the years have messaged asking for a quick tip before they headed out on their annual ski trip. They did not need an instructor but still wanted a little guidance.
I would send a couple of drills, and skills that they could use to help get them going. I enjoyed providing this guidance as working with clients to understand their goals, then formulate a plan for them to implement and achieve their goals is my favourite part of the job.
Secondly, after studying for a degree in psychology through distance learning whilst working around the world, I saw the benefit of online tuition. Its ease of use in many environments was practical and being accessible through my mobile phone was perfect.
I was keen to link these two together, to make ski instruction accessible on the mountain, using someone’s phone. SkiCoachingOnline is the result.
who
SkiCoachingOnline is for anyone looking to further their skiing skills.
From a person looking to get more confidence on the beginner runs through to instructors looking for a training plan to help them achieve exam success.
If you want to improve your skiing, we can help.
coach
My name is Steve Jones and I created SkiCoachingOnline to allow ski instruction to be more accessible for people. By having the required information to hand, to be implemented whenever the skier chooses.
Growing up in Wales, I played all the sports available. I started coaching during high school, becoming a basketball and tennis coach. After school, I moved onto a career as a ski instructor.
Currently I live in Zermatt, Switzerland year-round, after spending many years coaching skiing around the world, including Australia, Switzerland, Japan, Canada and America. Collecting certification from multiple nations, including the full Australian Level 4 APSI, and the Swiss Patente.
I spend the winters coaching skiing in Zermatt, working with both the public and fellow ski instructors. Working alongside my wife with her Summer Camps business, I spend the summers biking, climbing and enjoying everything else that Zermatt has to offer, as well as managing SkiCoachingOnline.
I enjoy every part of being a ski instructor, but my passion is assessing skiing, and identifying the elements that will enhance an individual’s skiing skills to align with their goals. This is what SkiCoachingOnline was created for.
Thank you for reading.
