  • Ability to ski and demonstrate all adaptive equipment

In order to give students more support and direction before they embark on the highest level courses, the Common Theory course will now act as an introductory course, coming in before the Adaptive Level 3 ISIA Technical course and Alpine Level 3 ISIA Teaching course. We strongly recommend that this module is completed first but this is not mandatory. The focus of the Common Theory course will be on providing the tools required to deal with the elite performance necessary for Adaptive Level 3 ISIA standards. This will include a Sports Psychology presentation, including tactics for dealing with stress during performance and development of endurance. 

Outcome
On successful completion of all training, students will have developed their technical competence and understanding of the underlying principles of Adaptive ski teaching. The Level 3 ISIA licence qualifies the student to teach up to parallel skiing and beyond, in a mountain environment.
