Big Picture Skiing

BPS ACADEMY

What if ski coaching could be done in a more effective way? What if your ski coach was accessible 7 days a week throughout the winter? To answer all your questions, guide you with drills and progressions, and relay video feedback on your skiing whenever you send a video in. The BPS Academy is revolutionising how you improve your skiing and in many ways it is better than on snow coaching. Find out more below. 

What Academy students are saying.

Hear from past BPS Academy students about their experience and what they have achieved doing the program. 

IMMERSE YOURSELF

What’s in the program

  • Coaching from Tom Gellie, Jason Simpson and Demelza Clay. Level 4 instructor/examiners, former demo team members. Learn from the best.

  • Weekly zoom lessons on every topic imaginable related to your ski improvement. 

  • Video feedback on your skiing. Voiceovers and comparisons to help you work on whats most important next. Imagine checking your feedback on the chairlift, and knowing exactly what to do next. See an example further on.

  • Ski specific dry-land exercises. Tom coaches predominantly online and has developed exercises to help you progress your skiing without even being on snow. 

  • A private community of like minded skiers to share insights and your journey with. Learning in a small supportive group has been shown to be more effective than working individually. 

  • Assessment of your equipment. Tom’s eye for analysis can spot when your ski boots or skis are holding you back. 

  • Learning outside of ski hours so you can spend more time enjoying the mountains and your skiing. Zoom classes are recorded in case you cant make them. 

The Winter Academy begins in December 2023. Numbers are limited.

Not all applicants are accepted as we first must find out if you are the right fit for the program. If you would like to apply please fill out the application form by clicking the APPLY NOW button. If you are successful you will be invited for a free online lesson with one of the BPS coaches.
