Michael Rogan and Eric Lipton – Intro to Skiing

For beginning and nominally experienced skiers, Intro to Skiing is a comprehensive guide to equipment, on-hill coping skills, and basic ski technique from the editors of SKI Magazine and the Professional Ski Instructors of America. From how to put on gear and get on the lift to controlling your speed and steering your skis, learn how to alpine ski in a six-part online course.

Skiing can seem like a fairly complicated sport for the uninitiated. We’ll tell you what you’ll need to know to be prepared for your first day at a ski area, how to dress for the cold, how your equipment works, how to navigate the resort, and of course, the skills you’ll need to have fun getting from top to bottom.

How This Course Works

We know you have a busy schedule, so we’ve designed this course to be taken at your own pace. You’ll learn through a variety of interactive formats, including video instruction, photo descriptions, and more. Each lesson builds on the last, and, while we’ve designed the course to be six weeks long, you can take it as quickly or slowly as you want. Plus, once you purchase the course, the lessons are yours forever.
