School Program
|
|
The Ski School program is designed to expose school age children to an outdoor lifestyle that promote physical fitness. In the day-to-day race of life we often forget the importance of physical fitness and its enhancement of intellectual development. One of the benefits of skiing /snowboarding as opposed to the likes of hockey or soccer is that the challenge is on a very personal level. There is ultimately a competition with oneself and success does not depend on the besting of others. It offers the individual an opportunity to participate at his/her own level. The introduction and participation of skiing/snowboarding provides a basis and sets a benchmark for a lifelong outdoor involvement.

The Cape Breton Ski Club (Ski Ben Eoin) and its snow school, a mix of instructors and coaches, have introduced an all inclusive program from the entry level to advanced skier.
Alpine Canada has helped the ski industry across Canada formulate a program that meets all the basis of learning from learning to ski in a fun environment to choices for the consumer as participants progress throughout the program.
The program consists of (7) seven skill sets, each broken into 3 components. Participant’s progress is tracked upon entry to completion of program. This gives each participant, along with their parent and coaching staff, a step-by-step detail of progression followed by a set of skills and drills for the participant to practice.
The consolidation of youth programs results in a revamped snow school with a single focus to deliver quality programs.
