The British Alpine Ski School (BASS) has just published it’s latest Summer 2010 Newsletter. Please find an extract with a link to BASS TV. It’s worth a view with tips on how to improve your ski performance. 

……………………………………………………………….

Snowsports enthusiasts are active, energetic people. The BASS Summer e-newsletter is full of activities that we can all enjoy, while developing our snowsports performance, in preparation for next winter.

There are beautiful videos for you to enjoy, to remind you of your past adventures in the mountains and inspire you for the future.

Plus of course, watching great ski videos, plus using the BASS mp4 video training programme “Ski Performance Breakthrough” can improve your understanding and coordination through the Summer, as your mind and body use this information to restructure and rehearse your performance.

The BASS Network in conjunction with Chalet Margaritka wishes you an active and enjoyable Summer. To see the full newsletter please contact them directly at: action@britishskischool.com

Make your Ski Performance Breakthrough

March 5, 2010
BASS Advantages headerWhen you see someone skiing smoothly, freely and simply, even in complex circumstances, you know that they have tuned into something special.
Great skiers literally have the freedom to create the solutions as they go along.

They earn that freedom by developing accuracy and skill with the key elements of skiing and by blending those elements into a sophisticated, coordinated whole, that fits into their environment.

Want to know more contact glyn@chaletmargaritka.com and I’ll put you in touch with BASS Morzine, or contact them directly:  morzine@britishskischool.co
