They wing it. And on a solo trip there’s no one to blame but you: your legs, your nerve and your stamina decide how the whole week goes. The reality is different on the slopes. Every hour out there is yours, and you get none of it if you are sidelined.
We make your trip better, much better. When you’re prepared you enjoy it more. In easy-to-follow, clear, simple steps we take you through an at-home programme guaranteed to get results, whatever fitness level you’re at now. From totally unfit to really fit. NO equipment to buy, NO gym membership needed.
Typically, three physical sessions and one mental session a week, at home, in a hotel, or wherever work takes you, from your phone. Mindset shifts you can feel each session, for the moments when the run looks steeper than the piste map promised. Finish the course, pass the checks, earn the PRE-SKI certificate, then maximise lessons with confidence.
You’re in a lesson with five others. Nobody there knows what you can do. Twenty minutes later, everybody does.
The instructor pitches the whole week at whoever is hanging on at the back. If that’s you, it is five days on terrain you were bored of by Tuesday.
Nobody is waiting for you at the bottom. Your thighs are burning, and you alone decide whether to take one more run.
Most people give up and go in. Legs are what buy you the afternoons, and the afternoons are usually the quiet, empty, best part of the day.
On a solo trip there’s nobody to slow down for you, so the third day decides the week. Eight weeks of leg endurance work is the difference between skiing until the lifts close and calling it a day in the early afternoon. It also tends to decide which lesson group you end up in.
You get put in a group on the first morning, and how you feel comes down mostly to fitness and nerve. Turn up able to hold a solid stance for a full run and you learn more.
One session a week works on self-talk and decision-making, which is the part solo skiers feel first. At the top of a red, or the top of a black, the voice in your head is what decides it. Train it for 8 weeks and it starts saying something useful.
Build endurance, strength and mobility so you can ski longer and safer, with less risk of injury.
Train your mindset and self-talk for better confidence and decision-making on the slopes, even when things get tough.
Understand what you need, what to bring, and how to use your gear. Focus on the experience, not the unknowns.
See and feel a noticeable improvement. PRE-SKI gives you the edge to progress faster and enjoy more.
