Not everybody has aspirations of working as a ski instructor…but we'll bet you have thought about the prospect of taking a gap year from life's ups and downs. If you have had either of these thoughts then Snow Rehabs 12 week Revy improver course is just the thing for you. Take time out of your life to indulge your snow addiction on a mountain that will chew you up and throw you out the other side, leaving you skiing like a pro! Revelstoke Mountain Resort is skied regularly by some of the best big mountain riders, who you will likely meet in the local watering holes and possibly get the opportunity to rip with in your free time! Revelstoke also has some of the best powder know to mankind, because of its central location in the heart of British Columbia, Canada. Whilst you're there, you have to spend some time in the steep shoots, gladed trees and massive bowls – magic!

LEARN FROM THE BEST IN REVELSTOKE!

You will never be the same after Snow Rehabs 12 week improver course at Revelstoke. The Reason...if it wasn't in your blood before, the need for more snow will build into a deep seeded passion, and you will be skiing like a pro, something your family and friends will marvel at the next time you ski together and they are trying to keep up! Over the 12 weeks you will be trained by the same standard of instructors we use for our ski instructor training programme, but the focus will be 100% on your ski ability and not on teaching ability. You will have 25 hours of on-snow training per week, focused on all mountain terrain! You think your skiing ability is good now? The Revelstoke Ski School pro's are going to take it to a whole new level, helping you descend lines you have only ever dreamt of. We dare you to give this a try!

During your time at Revy, your instructor will video your skiing regularly and analyse it with you. You will have the opportunity to race, go cat skiing, do your 1st aid course, avalanche course…..in fact you will leave Revelstoke a mountain pro!

Should you choose a Snow Rehab Revelstoke improver course?

coll_gent-4993Well we're not going to say no, are we?

There are other courses on the market you can choose from but none of them do it like Snow Rehab at Revelstoke. We'll keep this short: Snow Rehab will tailor the course to your needs, put you up in some awesome accommodations, feed you well, give you amazing training…..and more! Can't believe we nearly forgot to mention the 2 mountains in one option! Oh yeah and the cat skiing experience…….and getting the opportunity to ski with 4 time Canadian champion and 9 time North American Alpine champion Edith Rozsa (she's one of The SR Team!)….Oh yeah and…well you will just have to book now and experience it yourself!
