Hi, my name is Janis and I’m one of Rick’s students. I started to learn to ski at 37 years of age, so I still remember what it was like to be a beginner skier. I’ll try to get together a few tips and some articles that will help new skiers by answering some of the questions they may have about learning to ski.
