A Message From the Director
Big Thanks From the Wintersports Team
First of all thank you for choosing us and trusting us with your course, it means a lot to us and we hope to do everything we can to make it a trip you will remember forever.
Why we do this?
Thats easy. You trust us with a relatively small slice of your life, a large portion of your savings and what is, to date, maybe one of the most significant decisions of your life so far. Now, we consider ourselves privileged to try and turn that into one of the best memories you’ll ever have.
Which, if you think about it, we’ve got a pretty cool job to do. Don’t you think?
It just so happens, we also put together some of the best instructor courses in Canada.
However, we will be the first to admit we aren’t perfect, there are a lot of moving parts to your course, and we may miss some of your emails or, at times, be a little slow to reply. We apologise in advance and encourage you to just pick up the phone and call us if that is the case. We are always here to chat and you have permission to pester us if you need some attention from the Winter Sports Office!
Enjoy the Summer & we very much look forward to meeting you all in due course.
Kind regards
Rik
Director of the WSC.

Going Forward….
This is mostly aimed at some of the younger clients heading out to resort; This Onboarding is a really important process of your trip and we find that the more you take control at this stage the more prepared you are and the less surprises there are on d-day. We find that the time between having that initial phone call and actually turning up to the resort, is actually quite a long time and some of you understandably have forgotten what has or hasn’t been offered in your package. Its normal for the odd one of you to forget which resort they have chosen.
Small Request
May we come to an agreement? Your dealing with a smaller bespoke company, not some faceless giant with unqualified individuals at the helm. So we are available to help by email or phone, and encourage you to get in touch if you are stuck. But as a polite request- we really like our weekends like everyone else and would appreciate any questions or advice needed, to be requested during the working week, but if you have an urgent situation then by all means call us directly and speak to one of the team.
Our contact details are in the information on this page. Whilst we are knowledgable in most departments we do have our specialities. So please note who deals with what information so that you get the right answer from the right person. May we please remind you at this stage to check our general FAQ’s as there are a LOT of your questions answered right there. Or on this webpage with more specific “People Also Ask” sections.
Refresh Your Expectations
It’s sometimes important for us to manage peoples expectations along the way and politely remind everyone what you are getting within your programme. Sometimes it’s really hard to rectify any misunderstandings at that late stage. So please the best place to start is to take the time to re-read your quote, and any further information flowing your way like the knowledge base information, the blogs, and please write any down any questions you have.
We hope that this central hub and any subsequent phone calls or emails will be a good reminder and assist along the way.
Save The Page
We recommend that you save this page in your favourites or bookmark it as its not easy to find if you lose the link. Saving the email too which lead you to this page is also advised. Always refer back to this page if you need some information or guidance on what needs doing next.
A Lot Of Moving Parts
We have a few people behind the scenes helping us run the WSC. They can be found under the About Us section. Otherwise, by now you should know Emma & Rik, who keep things ticking along while our remote team members deal with you in the resort. You will get to know our UK team (Rob & Abbie) over the next few weeks as they help us to keep things rolling along smoothly as possible. They may contact you from time to time.
We don’t pay full-time employees. We don’t have expensive offices or large overheads. We call in and work very closely with experts to complete their tasks when the time is right and release them when they aren’t needed.
Orchestrating your course
Think of us as the conductors in an Orchestra. Thankfully we don’t fly your plane, or cook your food, we don’t own the accommodation, and we certainly don’t teach you to ski. We leave all this to the experts.
We leave them to do what they do best whilst we do what we do best: implementing the best instructor training programs available.
The benefit of this is you get professionals both on and off the slopes when it matters the most, we can then offer our courses cheaper than everyone else! Giving you the best bang for your buck with all our efforts aimed at you.
We will support you from your first, tentative steps as a qualified instructor through to specialising in one of our advanced programmes. Remember there have been hundreds of clients before you, and those lucky individuals have had the time of their lives, and the best part….
Now it’s your turn.
WSCollective
Once you have dealt with these tasks you should be good to go and we very much look forward to meeting you all either at the airport or in resort. A WSC team rep will be with you from start to finish and there to help guide you if needed. You are part of the WSCollective now, so enjoy the benefits of choosing us and enjoy the rest of the time available up to your departure date.
This is where it starts to feel real.
Vitally Important
Securing Your eTA
Electronic Travel Authorisation
Canada holds a visa-exemption policy with many countries, including the UK and Ireland, allowing citizens to visit Canada for up to six months without requiring a visa. As of March 15 2016, visa-exempt foreign nationals entering Canada by air will require an Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA).
All travellers must have an eTA to board their flight. Those with a valid Canadian working visa (such as an IEC working holiday visa) do not need to apply for a separate eTA as an eTA is included within the documentation of the visa entry letter.
If you’re heading to Canada for one of our ski or snowboard courses, rest assured that the process of obtaining an Electronic Travel Visa (eTA) is straightforward. For UK nationals, this can be done online and typically takes just a few minutes to a few days to get approved. Here’s our comprehensive guide to the eTA process, designed to make your journey as smooth as possible and get you on the slopes in no time.
Please Note: DO NOT PAY A 3RD PARTY COMPANY TO OBTAIN YOUR eTA.
There are many scammers around that advertise on the pages so stick to the exact government web pages only.
Applying for an Electronic Travel Authorisation
Thinking of Working next winter?
A quick run down of what pre-requisites there are to getting an IEC Working Holiday Visa. Plan ahead, especially if you want to secure a job, training and most importantly, secure accommodation for the following winter. If you intend to do one of our Level 2 or 3 Internships next winter, this is for you:
People Also Ask
If you’re on our internship program, then yes, you will need a working holiday visa as this will allow you the rights to work in Canada. If you’re on one of our courses that does not include work as part of the trip, then no, you will not need to apply for a working holiday visa. You will need to apply for Electronic Travel Authorization so that you can enter Canada as a visitor.
The purpose of the eTA is to provide Canadian Immigration with information about you. This includes a few simple background questions about your current job, financial information for your visit to Canada, and any medical issues you may have.
Use the link in this section. Citizens in many countries can apply online for an electronic travel authorisation, a simple online process that can be completed before or after you have booked a course – but you must have applied before you travel. A decision is usually instantaneous, and the ETA costs $7. Once approved, this holiday permit is valid for 5 years.
After recent changes in the summer of 2024, UK nationals are now eligible for up to three years on their working holiday visa.This is broken down into an initial 2 year visa then a separate 3rd year when the first expires.
You must ensure your passport is valid beyond your expected stay in Canada. For those applying for a working holiday visa on our internship programs, your passport must be valid for at least the full term if you want your full visa entitlement. Your eTA is electronically attached to your passport it will not transfer to your new passport automatically so make sure you apply for another eTA if you recently got another passport.
At the time of writing this no you do not, however you can go online and go to an eTA status checker to download & print your eTA status to show a paper trail to the staff at the airport. It also might give you piece of mind that everything is in place!
Then it is unlikely that you will get an eTA and therefore will not be able to enter Canada, Its important to inform us immediately of this situation.

Payments, Banking & Communications
Arranging your Payments to WSC
Depending on what option you ticked upon signing up you have either opted to pay the £300 to secure your course placement. A further £1000 will complete your deposit which is paid 16 weeks before flying. This is part of your course fee and not extra. The final amount is either paid as a lump sum 8 weeks before flying or if you have opted for a more flexible payment plan then equal weekly or monthly instalments up to 2 weeks before flying. This latter payment model is up to you to arrange through your bank by standing order and inform WSC what you have arranged.
Our Refund Policy is in our Terms & Conditions
Spending While You’re Away
Using your UK debit card in Canada may see you rock up a number of non-sterling transaction fees. It’s not uncommon for people to run into issues when trying to use a UK card abroad. Here’s a run through of how to manage your money abroad and whether you should buy a Canadian sim card. The earlier you can do this task the sooner you can make the most of the exchange rates between now and flying and transfer your home currency into Canadian dollars. Is your home currency strong to the dollar right now? If so get your wise account set up and transfer some over!
WISE Debit Card: I have been travelling for many years now and the card I have found to be the easiest, cheapest, most transparent with conversion charges etc is this bank, it’s one card with as many currencies as you like. Takes less than 10 mins to sign up and make sure you apply for the debit card. Do it early as it takes a while to arrive. (7-14 days) Not saying its the best but I have no complaints and its easy for you and your family to top up and save on bank fees!! It also means you can spend using Canadian dollar without needing to setup a Canadian bank account.
Phones, Sim Cards and E-sims
Since this is an ever changing landscape and everyones needs are different, we have compiled some information on a blog for you to get a grasp of what is on offer and what is right for you.
People Also Ask
Yes you should otherwise you will feel the financial pinch every time to use your native currency card.
We suggest Wise for all our clients. As mentioned before this bank card has been tried and tested and approved. So keep things simple.
You will in the first week have time to get a sim card. However Sun Peaks clients will end up with less opportunity as the nearest town is 40 mins away and a little expensive to get there. So try to get something at the airport in Vancouver or in resort if need be. Sussing what you want in advance is a good idea. Panorama clients live 20 mins from town and its easy to get down there on your day off, but regardless of which resort you are in your first 3 weeks are limited for time off so have some data on your phone as back up. Read the blogs for ideas.
We all use Whats App in the lead up to the course and during your training. WSC and Trainers will post on the WhatsApp groups which will be set up in advance of you heading out.
Yes there are areas where you can get wifi but its slow, so please make sure you have something already on your account set up so you can stay in touch with home and your fellow peers. EE and Vodafone sometimes do great roaming packages that you can take away with you.
There is a possibility that we have missed you, so get in touch and we can arrange your next payment.
Vitally Important
Insurance For Your Course
Do Your Due Diligence!
Insurance is an essential purchase when taking part in a ski season. Not only is it a prerequisite in our terms and conditions, but you also don’t want a hefty bill if something goes wrong. We break down the sorts of questions you should be asking insurance providers and our recommendations for winter sports coverage so you get the most for your £.
For those entering Canada on a working holiday visa, you will be required to have insurance for the full two years upon entry into Canada. For those taking one of our courses and NOT applying for a working holiday visa, you will only require insurance for the duration of your intended stay. See the following guides for more information on the insurance you’ll need for your course.
Do I Need Insurance for my Ski/Snowboard Instructor Course?
Going Off-piste or Back Country?
Please check your policy covers you for the Bolt Ons that you have picked. It is up to you to make sure you are fully insured if you are going in the terrain park, out of resort boundaries, heli skiing or Cat skiing, In Canada if you are within resort boundaries and have not gone beyond any closed areas, then you are likely insured under your policy but please double check.
You can use this link to cover you for any extra days that you are going to do these activities by arranging a quote with this company. There is a link below to help you arrange a quote. Remember only those who are either wanting to be in the Terrain park or leaving resort boundaries with or without a guide will need to check their insurance for extra coverage. It is ultimately up to you as an individual to arrange this.
People Also Ask
Most people decide to get insurance before they pay the full amount 8 weeks before flying. However remember you can always get a single trip insurance policy and be covered from the date you pay for your policy not just the date you fly.
As a bare minimum your insurance should cover you for the duration of your course and stay in Canada. Your insurance should also include Winter sports cover. Ideally you would have insurance before you travel so that you have cancellation cover should the worst happen and you’re unable to go.
It needs to cover medical, repatriation, cancellation & curtailment. It must also cover you for winter sports both on piste and off piste but within resort boundaries which are patrolled in Canada. (considered different in Europe)
Anything else is up to you, equipment, belongings. Also think about do you want a family member to fly out in case of emergencies?
Toptip: Base your insurance policy on this question? “How much money do I want to recover in case I get injured and need to fly home?” What ever that amount is in the policy, if you are happy recovering that amount then the rest of the policy should fall into place satisfactorily.
If you are skiing or snowboarding then YES. Decide if you are going to be sking or riding in the park and get coverage for this too. Each policy is different. Are you planning on backcountry and going outside of resort boundaries or heliskiing? In which case you might need additional insurance nearer the time. This can be added to your existing policy or purchase a seperate policy for the day(s)
No sorry. Please check your policy carefully as we are not brokers and cannot legally advise you. All we can do is suggest which providers have been good to previous clients.You must do your own due diligence. We have previously sent you documentation covering as much information as we legally can without over stepping the mark.
Depending on the severity of the injury, you will be sent to Ski Patrol who will assess your injury and deal with the injury or stabilse you, consisting of either patching you up and a pat on the back then calling you a taxi to the hospital or in some cases calling an ambulance or air ambulance.
A WSC rep will be notified by Ski Patrol or alerted by one of the clients. We shall assist where we can but please be aware there are lots of people in resort which require our presence at times. If it is possible and we can do so we will transport the client to the local hospital or arrange a taxi. Some reps do not necessarily have transportation.
We will make sure the patient is stable, looked after and not distressed. Then help with informing the insurance company and if asked the family member.
WSC will remain the go-to between injured person-insurance company and guardian for as long as needed or required.
Sun Peaks has a good medical center at the base of the slopes. The main hospital is in Kamloops. Which is 40mins away.
Panorama has a hospital in Invermere which is 25 mins away but the main hospital is in Cranbrook which is 2hrs away.
Revelstoke has a hospital in town and its 5 mins from the resort.
Serious medical emergencies at Revelstoke, Sun Peaks or Revelstoke may involve being sent to Kelowna.
It happens! If you are injured at home or injured on the ski lift or worse, slip on the pavement and that injury prevents you from starting or completing the training then you will be given a reasonable amount of time to recover and rejoin but if you miss too much training then you will fall behind too far and have to decide whether you fly home and recover your money from the insurance company or stay in Canada and recover on your own time. In which case we need to discuss what WSC can do to salvage your goals and dreams.
Please Note: We have in the past transferred the die hards over to an 8 week Fast Track course late in the season to allow their injuries to improve but this is at an extra cost. Please note your course fees have been allocated and cannot be transferred to other courses or other years. It is also worthy to note that whilst you will be covered medically, you cannot claim off your insurance for curtailment or cancellation if you decide to stay out in resort!
Sometimes we have suggestions for those with conditions that may incur raised premiums. Get in touch we maybe able to advise.

Documentation & Travel Information
Flights:
Don’t panic about your flights if you have chosen to fly with the WSC. All will be dealt with in due course and you will be sent the flight details between 3-7 weeks before flying.
In the meantime Emma is on hand to answer any questions regarding the flights and travel process. Your quote should have the preliminary flight date, with arrival and departure airport name.
Please Note: When you receive the flight information immediately check that the details are the same as in your passport. These mistakes cannot be rectified easily if missed and will be considered a change at your expense should any charges be incurred.
Updates Here:
All things considered you will be required to fill out a few more forms and sign some documents as time rolls on, so ensure that you collect bits of paperwork as you go along.
We suggest getting a folder at this stage to keep everything together and be a central point of storing your information from insurance to lift pass waivers, to passport pdf’s.
Try to have paper copies of vital information in case your digital copies get lost. You will be notified by email if a new link is placed here. When the resorts have updated their documentation and forward them to us then we and add it here.
People Also Ask
Make sure you are very thorough in getting approval from us before booking your flight. We need to ensure that you are arriving at a suitable time to meet the group and travel on the same transportation provided. We suggest getting a flexible ticket so you can make changes should you or we need to.
Make some plans to find accommodation if you need to. As soon as you know you are going to be late, alert the person who is in charge of the group so we can plan accordingly. We will help arrange alternative transportation to the resort but this will be at your expense.
You need your passport, photo ID, proof of insurance, and a copy of your flight details. (tickets are issued at the airport).
Batteries run out! Take paper and digital copies of everything and tag, pin or save these in an easily accesible place on your laptop, phone or tablet.
Carry a folder for all your paper copies in your carry on bag.
Your tickets will be available at the airport.
With the WSC flights you have one carry on bag, one computer bag or equivalent. One hold bag, One ski/board bag and a boot bag allowance with your flights. More precise information on weight limitations can be found on the airlines baggage allowance webpage and/or on your ticket.
Depending on which airline we fly with your boot bag and ski bag weight limitation maybe combined.
At the time of writing, this usually has to be added at the airport on the day.You simply turn up early and go to the airlines desk or check in area and pay for this directly. Currently it has not been possible to add this to your booking unless stated in advance, hence paid for separately.
Usually in the airport at Costas or a similar venue nice and early. Our rep or Director will be there to greet you and help you get checked in. We will be there 4 hrs before the flight and will remain around check in till we cannot wait any longer. Somebody will be flying out to resort with you.
We will all be queuing up to first fill out some electronic forms, take a print out and see the immigration officer to explain our reason for entry. You will be asked some simple questions, before being let through. If you are unsure please ask them where to go next to get your work visa activated. DO NOT get guided into a direction that is different to what the immigration officer told you. It is extremely important that you remain in the area to process your visa before picking up your bags. Once you have passed through into arrivals there is no turning back to sort your visa out.
We are always on hand to discuss anything that you have concerns about or disagree with. Some of these forms are not created by us and you will subjected to the same terms as everyone else working in resort or using the slopes. These documents are sometimes governed by Canadian provincial law or local to the resorts owning company. If you have any disagreements please write to us by email and bring this to our attention at the time.
If you are one of our UK clients or joining the main group in London, then we normally fly out from Gatwick or Heathrow.
Sometimes clients fly in much later than the main group. In which case you will have to pay a supplement charge for us to organise individual transportation to catch up. This will be added to your quote or charged independently.
Check your quote, make sure that your name is spelt correctly and how it is on your passport. This is the name we will be using for your flights. So its important to get it changed NOW if its not right!

Instructor Training Questions
Some commonly asked questions for those undertaking your Level 1 & 2 ski and snowboard Instructor training programmes. These programmes vary between resort, if you have specific questions pertaining to your resort that you need clarification on then please reach out to us and ask your question directly as they can be too numerous to put all of them here.
Very likely, the examples given are indicative and not cast in stone. The resort reserve the right to alter the training days if need be, however these changes are minor and you will be informed by your trainers or by WSC.
You will receive a minimum of 20hrs per week. Its enough trust us, you need time to recover from jet lag, time to get your ski/ride legs and time to chill out. Free skiing/riding is allowed on your days off.
You will complete your exams in the 3rd week of being in resort.
Training days are run differently at each resort according to the resorts Snow School Ski & Ride Manager. Days off will be given, usually the first few weeks are reasonably intense so time is limited initially. Plenty of time will be allocated for you to take days off throughout the course. There is usually a good open window of opportunity after passing your Level 1 to fit in Bolt ons, have family or friends come out to join, explore other mountains or simply take some time off.
Your trainers are either long term level 3 instructors for the CSIA/CASI or Level 4’s. All have a minimum of 8 years instructing. They are tried and tested trainers who are very adept at keeping you on the edge of your comfort zone so that you neither get too tired and injure yourself nor conversely switch off and become bored.
Get as much as you can from these fantastic skiers and boarders as they will be really keen to share their knowledge. It may not be until much later that you really understand how lucky you are to share this time with these people. They are at the top of their game.
On another note they maybe your future mentor or employer so if you get the chance buy them a coffee or beer and keep them sweet!
If it says this on your quote then yes they are.
Its a 4 day exam with a CASI conductor.
It is a combination of a 2 day Teach module, a 2 day Ski module and a 2 day Exam.
Your Level 2 training will begin after your Level 1 exam. No rest for the wicked! Your schedules may change depending on the ski school and trainer availability. Sometimes we fit in a decent break in your schedule, other times we hit the ground running and get some headway into your Level 2 before taking the foot of the gas and giving you a breather to break up your Level 2 training.
Ski Patrol | AMP Questions
Some commonly asked questions for those undertaking your Ski Patrol or All Mountain Safety & Free-ride Performance Camp (AMP). These two advanced programmes overlap with content on certain days. If you have questions pertaining to your specific course that you need clarification on then please reach out to us and ask your question directly. We will do our best to answer most of them but please understand that some of these may require to be answered by the individual governing body taking your training and may require longer to reply.
You will learn a lot more in regards to your training during your familiarisation days with each instructor.
The resort reserve the right to alter the training days if need be, however these changes are minor and you will be informed by your trainers or by WSC should this happen. You will not lose days but please appreciate you are being trained by professional Ski Patrollers and the mountain comes first. If an emergency is requiring all the patrollers efforts as a team then WSC training will be postponed to another time.
After your first 3 weeks. You will receive 2 days per week from the Snow school. Its enough trust us. These days will be hard but fun!
The first 2 weeks is on-piste and then slowly you will be introduced to more challenging terrain in weeks 3-11.
Generally speaking during your All Mountain Safety course (AMP), expect to get 4 days training per week split amongst the disciplines. You can take days off or free ski outside of this.
Your instructors are professional patrollers within the Revelstoke Ski Patrol team. They are some of the best in the world at what they do and have a wealth of knowledge at their fingertips. Soak it up!
If it says this on your quote then yes they are. With the Ski Patrol course the AVSAR Level 1 comes as standard. With the All Mountain Safety & Free ride Performance Camp (AMP) it is optional.

We will provide you with an Avalanche Pack with transceiver, shovel & probe. This pack is on loan, a deposit is required which will be returned to you once all items accounted for.
Managing Your Time
Avoiding Burnout and Additional Training
During your course program, you will have days off scheduled between your training and other courses. We encourage you to use this time off to go skiing and riding with friends, explore and blow off steam. Panorama, Sun Peaks and Revelstoke are all huge mountains with extensive terrain that you must get out and make the most of, especially on powder days. That being said, it’s worth noting that your schedules will be full on. The training days are intense and require much physical and mental energy. It’s easy for fatigue to creep in, and before you know it, you’re burned out and unable to put your best foot forward each day. Remember that this isn’t a one-week family ski holiday; you’ll be on snow for weeks on end!!
With that in mind, we recommend taking a day off snow. Relax, grab a good brekky and explore the mountain towns or catch up on some life admin. Your trainers will also encourage you to take the day off snow now and then.
We also encourage you to use any days off from scheduled training to put in additional practice hours. Be mindful of energy levels and burnout, of course. This is particularly encouraged ahead of the Level 2 exams. Video one another, practice with your teachers and put in some laps on the terrain where your exams will be marked. The mileage adds up. Many of your trainers offer their spare time to squeeze in a couple of runs with you before exams.
Revelstoke
If you are taking part in Free-ride training at Revelstoke, then you really need to be ready for what the mountain will through at you. Turning up fit is essential to your success and recovery. This training programme is a great mix of Free ride skills but also Back country touring. The touring days will take a lot out of you, especially if you are not used to it. Hiking uphill on touring equipment, can whilst serene, be demanding on the legs and lungs. Thankfully you will not be doing back to back touring but be mindful the day or night before to rest as much as you can.

Fitness & Nutrition
Turning Up Fit
If you are planning on getting fit out there, then forget it. Some of you will have never experienced a winter season in Canada. It takes it out of you in so many ways and you need to be physically prepared.
“Our advice is to turn up fit not get fit out there.”
Our courses and internships enable you to ride all day long, but it’s easy to forget how exhausting skiing and boarding is on the body. Building your strength and endurance will allow you to ride for long periods, and gives you a baseline to improve.
Strengthening your muscles and improving your flexibility can reduce the risk of common skiing injuries, such as ACL tears or fractures. More so, proper nutrition and adequate hydration supports muscle recovery and repair, allowing you to perform at your best on consecutive days.
So to fuel yourself and avoid burnout, have a look at our fitness and nutrition guide, created by Abbie, our Sports Therapist, qualified Nutrition Coach, keen skier & boarder.
Getting The Most Out Of Your Season
People Also Ask
Lots of reasons:
1. Get more out of your training
2. Recover faster
3. Keep your stamina up
Please do not expect to get fit out there, there are too many distractions and its much better for your experience if you start a training programme now!
Now. Not next week, not after my birthday, not on Bank Holiday Monday, not when your star sign is aligned with Uran…Just start. We’ve put a free 8 week programme together, its currently under a revamp but for now the format will give you some ideas.
My best advice is not to skip leg day and concentrate on legs, knees, ankles, core and flexibility. So in a nutshell cross-fit style training, Yoga and Squats.
Have fun!
You won’t be spending any time in the gym. You’ll be wiped at the end of the day. There will be off-snow training that focuses on movement and video analysis, ski boot and ski tuning clinics.
The program is designed to get harder; the working time increases and exercises advance from week to week. Depending on your fitness levels you may opt to skip the initial weeks, however we advise that everybody start with week one moving through the weeks mastering each exercise.
At the start of the programme, we outline how each workout is performed, breaking down timings and movements. Exercise will have numerous pictures and they’re helpful hints throughout. There is no pressure to do anything, if you do not feel comfortable with a new workout, control the intensity.
You only need a timer or stop watch to complete the main program.
There are some bonus pages in the programme that require bands or dumbbells, and of course you’re welcome to make movements harder by adding weights as you feel comfortable and ready for the challenge.
There is no formal fitness test for any ski season, but it’s wise to build your endurance muscle strength and stamina so you can get the most out of your season. Being fit can reduce the chance of injury.
The programme is designed to get progressively harder throughout the weeks. However, if you are unable to complete a certain movement or don’t feel ready you do not have to advance! Change out the hard exercises for the ones you know you can do, and work similar muscle groups.
The programme is mix of slow and controlled strength movements and high intensity, sweaty style workouts. This combination will help to improve both your muscle and cardiovascular endurance, both are essential for a long day the slopes.
You keep repeating weeks as often as you need to until you feel you’re ready to progress to the next level.
Not only do you need to train your muscles, but skiing and boarding require cardiovascular, strength and flexibility. If you’re not very active, to get ready for the winter, you will want to start to think about your fitness 6-12 weeks prior to flying to make sure you build up enough strength in time.
Stretching will give you more mobility, making your muscles more resilient and overall, more fit for strenuous activities like skiing or boarding.
Leg strength is incredibly important for getting ski fit. Perhaps the most obvious part of your body that needs tuning up before you click into your skis or lock into your board. Leg strength is key to longer days spent skiing with less fatigue and soreness.
Everything including your glutes, hamstrings, calves and quadriceps will be working overtime when you start gliding down the slopes. So, really working out your legs in the weeks before your ski trip will prepare your body immensely.
Developing more core strength is a big part of ski/board fitness. After all, leaning side to side, bracing yourself to slow down and stop takes a lot of core strength. Overlooking this important aspect of ski fitness is a big mistake.
The snow shred section of the programme is done by performing one of the exercises for the allowed time, resting, then moving down the page for the next exercise and so on and so forth. Each one working in a time, resting or change. Make sure you have a quick read and look over the exercises before starting.
Mountain maintenance workouts are slower, requiring control and focus.
Instead of jumping, you can rise high onto your toes reach your body up. Adding weight or moving quicker will also increase the intensity of any exercise.
It is for everyone looking to get fit and season ready! You’ll quickly notice some elements will replicate skiing and boarding.
If you have any doubts about beginning a fitness routine, make sure you consult with a GP/Sports Therapist/ Physio.
Important
Clothing
Wrapping up Warm
“If you are wearing more than 5 layers then you are doing it wrong”
Getting the right clothing for the job is vitally important in order to enjoy your time on and off the slopes.
The average temperature in interior BC sits around the minus ten mark, and there will be a few colder snaps throughout the season. Especially when it hits those minus 20 to 30 days, you’ll thank your previous self for investing in quality gear. From base to mid to outer layers, we run through what you should be looking for when buying gear for the slopes. So although vintage gear looks cool, it won’t keep you warm – save it for Spring skiing!

Up to you, the GBP£ is strong against the dollar at time of writing so its cheaper in Canada and lots of gear out there. However those going to Sun Peaks will have less opportunity to shop, whereas those going to Panorama or Fairmont Hot Springs will have some opportunity to go shopping. Otherwise buy in the UK a mix of Snow & Rock, Ellis Brigham, Decathalon, Mountain Warehouse, StellarEquipment.
Soft shell clothing is where you have an outer weather proof layer attached to a thermal layer within. A hard shell is a layering method where these two elements are seperate garments. Acheived with a hard shell wind and water proof jacket and pants and a separate down jacket underneath.
Gloves, down jacket, good socks and a full face snood.
There is usually a period where it can reach over -25-30, you may not be teaching on these days but training may occur if really necessary in short spurts in between lots of hot chocolate and cafe stops.
If the conditions are worse or considered dangerous then only the lower parts of the mountain will be accessed or simply closed for those few days. This is an unfortunate event and obviously outside of everyones control but will affect your work hours during that period.
The fun part, unless your a parent…..
Equipment
What Should I be Using?
Directly from those in the industry, Harry and Sam give their insight about the best skis, boards and boots for working as an instructor. Ski shops can be a little overwhelming, and it’s easy to just go with what looks aesthetic. But working as an instructor requires you to have versatility, as often your morning and afternoon lessons are drastically different in terms of student skills and snow conditions. The morning could have you chasing powder in the back bowls with a few keen riders looking to progress, or you could be up and down the magic carpet holding the hands of a toddler. No lesson looks the same, and you should have gear that suits all conditions, and that may mean owning multiple skis or boards. Harry and Sam are seasoned season-aires and are willing to share their tips when buying.
When doing these courses, you should ensure you have an 70-84mm ski if you are taking your course at Sun Peaks or Panorama.
This is because learning to carve will be the main focus for most of the course and the conditions depict this width of ski, and the narrower your skis are, the easier it is to carve. Ideally around 70-80mm width is ideal for Canadian on piste carving conditions.
If you can afford two sets of skis then broaden your scope by bringing your narrow carving skis then go nice and wide for your powder skis, then you are covered for all conditions. For those park rats, then by all means bring your spare set for your days off.
As a general rule of thumb unless you really know what you are buying and why, then getting a suitable length ski which ends somewhere between your nose and eyebrows for an All Mountain ski or chin to eye level for something easier to carve and more responsive will be a fair judgement. When you are starting off a shorter ski is preferable, if you are advanced skier or rider the longer your ski or board the more directional it will be but certainly more stable at speed.
Half The Battle
Being on the right equipment and turning up fit in our opinion is winning half the battle before you have even started. So take our word for it when it comes to equipment.
We often have an incredibly high pass rate because we try to get everyone on the right TYPE of equipment.
You are about to invest a lot of money in your course so as a thank you we have passed on these offerings to you as a bonus of coming with the WSC. These discounts & savings are eligible to you and your family every year for as long as we own this company. Pretty cool right?
Please Note: We add a £50 handling fee to your overall order. We are offering this equipment to you at cost. Whats the catch I hear you ask?
Well we cannot afford to discuss with each and everyone of you whether these bindings are best with which skis, what boots would you get for which board, what helmet do I think is best? Are these poles long enough?
In other words if you want us to be the retail attendant then we will charge retail prices. Sound fair?
We have deals coming in over the next few weeks and will update this area as and when they do. They have been chosen because they are good for your Level 1 & 2 Instructor Course. Until we do please check out the blogs below to help you with your choice or simply to improve your knowledge.
Ellis Brigham Discount
Take a photo of this and keep it on your phone. (Ignore the expiry date!) Its a good discount with Ellis Brigham and they have stores up and down the country. There are pros and cons to buying through them, they have a good selection of boots but you are risking the fitting being right and not getting it rectified in resort as openly as you would if you bought it from them.
Do you Need Any Equipment?
If the answer is yes to this question then please click on this button and fill out the form, one of the team will be getting in touch with you over the next few weeks, with a few fantastic deals on skis, boards, poles, boots, helmets, ski/board bags and any accessories you may need.
Updates Here:
As deals come in we will post them here and alert you by email or WhatsApp.
Touring Equipment Rental for AMP & Ski Patrol Clients:
Please use Revelstoke Powder rentals for hiring any touring equipment for your course. We have Avalanche packs to loan you but you need to make sure you have the relevant touring equipment, (poles, skis, skins, touring boots) for your backcountry days. The AMP course has a total of 7 back country days. If you are purchasing hybrid equipment you will be fine, if you have chosen not to and hiring your touring equipment you will need to deal with Powder rentals directly. There details can be found here. Powder Rentals
Equipment Offer:
Hi Everyone,
Excuse the generic email, but it’s shopping time! We’ve secured a fantastic offer on ski and snowboard equipment, which we’re excited to extend to you and your family.
Since this is only our second year doing this, we don’t have a fully-fledged e-commerce store yet, so we’re using a simplified ordering system for now—think of it like ordering a really expensive Chinese takeaway but way more fun!
Why Am I Offering This?
I’m offering these products to you at cost price to WSC. Over the coming years, as my order baseline grows, I will get better discounts from our suppliers. This will eventually allow me to offer free skis or snowboards with every course we run, making it a win-win for you, our suppliers, and WSC! Some of you are already reaping the benefits of these free ski offers.
Until then, here’s what’s on offer and a few guidelines.
Rules of Engagement
• One Bulk Order: I will only place one bulk order before we leave for Canada. We will do a maximum of two bulk orders per year going forward.
• Order & Shipping: I will use our bulk-buying arrangement to purchase equipment on your behalf. It will either be shipped to your address or be ready for collection in Canada. You’ll be informed which products are sourced where.
• Bag Recommendation: If you’re purchasing skis or boards, I highly recommend getting a Snokart Ski or Board Bag from us.
• Flat Fee: I’m charging a £50 flat fee per overall order up to 2 skis per person to cover handling fees. If you are not getting skis or board this fee will be waivered.
I’m not charging shop prices, but I also won’t be able to provide detailed assistance in selecting equipment. However, I’ve highlighted some popular choices in green on the Google Sheets for easy reference. If you need more assistance then say but we will not be ultimately responsible for your choice as its personal preference in what you choose.
UK and Canada Sales:
• K2 products are only sold to clients in the UK. If you’re not in the UK, arrangements can be made to bring them to Canada for a fee.
• Salomon, Atomic, and Dynastar products will be available in Canada upon your arrival. These are paid for in CAD$
• Payment: I will send you an invoice via email or Whatsapp with payment instructions (card or Bank Transfer). Canadian Skis will be invoiced separately through Wise to avoid currency charges. In this case you can pay through your new Wise account very easily. There will be 2 payment requests. The first is a standard deposit/handling fee. The last one is your total final amount with shipping if needed.
• Suppliers: Do not contact suppliers directly regarding these discounts; this offer is strictly between WSC and you.
• Deadline: All orders must be submitted by the end of the month.
• Family & Friends: Yes, your family and friends can shop too!
**Those with free skis included in their packages will be given the Salomon Stance 80’s or equivalent.
Additional Notes
• Boots, Helmets & Goggles: I suggest purchasing these items at your resort (Revelstoke, Panorama/Calgary, or Sun Peaks), especially for boots, as they often need remoulding after a week or two of use. Helmets and goggles should ideally be purchased together to ensure a good fit. If you are buying your goggles online thats fine but do not do the same with your helmet.
• Skis & Boards: If you’re buying in the UK and have access to a snow dome, it’s a great idea to try your gear before the trip. However buying in-resort also has advantages, but expect to pay retail prices unless you opt for the Salomon or Atomic offerings, these two companies can quickly replace any faulty items during your stay in Canada. Outside of this you will get basic discount by being a WSC clients in resort.
• Snowboards: Consider the K2 Embassy for beginner to intermediate courses, and the K2 Manifest for more advanced riders. Alternatively, you can purchase from Noble Custom or in-resort at Syndicate in Invermere near Panorama.
• Ski Instructors (Sun Peaks & Panorama): Skis with 70-84 mm underfoot width are ideal for Level 1 & 2 courses. If you’re only buying one pair, then it’s up to you whether you want to lean towards the wider end of the range.
• Revelstoke Ski Patrollers & All Mountain Safety Course: Aim for skis in the 80-84mm range for on-piste skiing and/or 95-110mm for free-riding or patrolling.
• Poles & Gloves: Having 2 pairs of gloves is invaluable in cold temperatures. One for the slopes and one for town. As for poles, don’t go overboard—stick with simple, functional options unless you need touring poles. Snow Shepherd do some fantastic options. Also worth checking out their brand new Lotus ski clothing its an incredible ground breaking material and is fast becoming a brand to be seen in. We are putting together a blog on poles to help you, live very soon this week.

Usually all our offerings are provided to you in mid September however as deals come in we might send these out early or later than this date.
If you have ordered from us and its UK based then it will arrive and be posted to you if asked in early November.
Equipment will be invoiced separately to your main booking. This cannot be added to your quote.
We want you to have the best discount possible but do not have the man hours set up to be a conventional shop front. So see what is on offer, do your own research and then decide. We will only sell equipment specials that are suitable. If you are buying K2 equipment then we may alert you to the more popular pieces, but we will not get engaged in in-depth analysis of your choices or interests with the Noble equipment. However if you are really stuck then reach out and we will guide you. Sorry hope you understand!
If your detailed course information email during our correspondence mentioned free skis/board IF booked within 7 days of receiving that email and you accomplished that or your course qualified for this, then you will get this fantastic offer.
Yes sorry. You are getting free skis or board with bindings! Its an amazing offer but I still need to pay people to get it to you. Everyone buying skis/boards from the Winter Sports pays the £50 handling fee.
No you are exempt from this fee only those getting skis or boards pay this.
The fun part, unless your a parent…..
The Bolt Ons
Apologies for the delay in getting these underway, things took a little longer to get all the prices and availability together from some of these 3rd party providers this year. One or two we have been unable to finalise, but the rest are still available and some minor tweaks made from last year to make them even better. Theres even a couple of newcomers to the line up.
Click the link below to take you to the Bolt On page and your form to fill out. We will be completing orders by the end of this month. Its a first come first served basis in case there are any availability issues.
Any questions please contact Rik on Whats App. One of the team will contact you to see if you have any queries and go through the chosen list, should you have any questions. The Deadline is the 30th October but if you need a little more time we can stretch to that.
Tension building….
Packing & Preparation
There’s quite a few things to do before you embark on your adventure of a lifetime, from organising visas to insurance to equipment. But let’s go through to calm the anxiety that may be creeping in. Trust us, it’s not as overwhelming as it seems if you break it down.
Kit List. What to Bring.
Here is a preliminary kit list. I hope this helps.We are sending out an email and giving options on all the equipment for the winter in regards to skis, board, bindings poles etc so if you hang on you might get some good deals.
Some of the days can get down to -30 or colder. Its not uncommon to see -20 days so make sure you layer properly. Getting frostbite on the ski lift is not fun. Also if you have bad circulation then seriously think about heated socks.
So onto the list.
Skis or Board

Gloves- for on and off the slopes

A good book/cards.
Home comforts. Favourite coffee, tea, chocolate
Im sure there are other suggestions but weighing this and a practice pack will help you decide what you need to leave behind. Like the cat, I was just joking, who brings a cat?

People Also Ask
Book another bag at the airport or decide that maybe you don’t need all that stuff and leave some behind. Just saying…
If I could say this over and over and over again then maybe just maybe one year we could get everyone using soft luggage and leaving those hard cases behind. You don’t have a lot of room to hide your luggage, soft luggage rolls up and packs away. Leaving more room for you to see the carpet for example. WSC have some great examples of strong, branded kit bags at great prices which additionally, make you look pro at the airport.
Check out the blogs in this section and realise that, you will not need “outfits” you are not going to “nightclubs” this isn’t a fashion show. If you cannot fit what you need in the allowance and you think you need another bag, then I rethink your packing methods or dump some non-essentials.
Bring 70’s gear though!
Non-Essential
Extra Bed-time Reading & FAQ’s
Can’t sleep at night?
Whilst this is not vital you may want to spend some evenings going through this as it might help prepare you or jog your memory about a question you wanted to ask. Here are the remaining Blogs or Knowledge base articles that we deemed worthy of reading. They are all included here so that you do not need to trawl through the entire library.
You can of course ignore this but as you get closer to the departure date some of you need a little extra help to fall asleep in the evenings…so keep an eye on this area as we get closer. Right now concentrate on the more important tasks at hand.
Concerned…ok maybe a little
Parent Zone
Sending Your Prized Possession Away?
We get it, we are parents too and will always place this before business. Deep down this, maybe is one of the reasons you have chosen us. Accidents do happen, things do go wrong and yes there isn’t much we haven’t already dealt with. So whilst we cannot stem Mum’s tears at the airport. (and on the odd occasion Dad’s) We can say that we will do everything we can to keep your son or daughter comfortable whilst they are out there.
We will give you some instructions on getting in touch with WSC in the event you have a family emergency, situation in the UK or there is an emergency in resort.
There will be a representative in the UK and Canada that you will be able to get in touch with 24hrs days a week. We will let you know nearer the time who to call. All we can say is do not hesitate to get in touch if you urgently need help.
Health Declaration Form
Can all parents or Guardians please make sure you fill out our Health Declaration form. An example of this is seen here. You will be sent this independently and it will remain private between the WSC reps and yourselves. Should we, at the time deem this important to divulge this information then it will be shared with the Snow School Manager & Emergency Services. This information will be removed from our files after they leave the resort and finish the season.
For Those More Travelled
If you are a little more worldly wise and self sufficient then we understand you are probably not going to be in the above category. We will however still need some next of kin details before you come out in case of an accident. We shall politely ask you to provide these details at a later date. We will also need you to fill out our Health Declaration Form, which again will be emailed to you directly.
Well that’s it folks there isn’t much else to do other than head back to the top of the page.
Like we said we will be updating this page, and informing you by email of any additions.
Till then stay safe, get fit, enjoy yourselves, save those pennies and count down the days to your big trip.
