NIM 200 Alpine Connecting the Pieces: Technical Knowledge
Description: In this clinic, participants will explore the connection between technical knowledge, application, and how it fits (and doesn't fit!) into our lessons. Technical talk helps us, as instructors, understand the movements and outcomes we see, but the detailed descriptions don't necessarily have a place in our lessons.
Technical Skills Clinic, Full Day, On-Snow. Qualifies as Assessment Prep Clinic or Continuing Education. Open to all certification level, with targeted application to uncertified, level 1 certified, and level 2 certified instructors.
Terrain: Participants should be prepared to ski in blue ungroomed terrain and blue to black groomed terrain, as the group/clinic topic requires.
