Mountain Skills Academy & Adventures

We pride ourselves in offering the highest quality courses in Skiing, Mountaineering, Rock & Ice climbing, as well as Avalanche safety and Technical mountain safety. Our course content, structure and teaching methodology combine to form a curriculum that culminates from years of experience drawing from the very best of European and North American techniques. Courses have been organized in a series of logical sequential building blocks. Spanning the range from beginner to expert, each course is designed to provide a comprehensive curriculum that not only builds a strong foundation, but also develops high levels of performance and rapid future progression. Students can easily place themselves into a course corresponding to their current ability and experience. Course participants are able to build a solid foundation and fast track their apprenticeship through our detailed and comprehensive set of lessons which are taught in a guide-mentored fashion. We only hold courses with a small participant to guide ratio. All of this is achieved within the most perfect learning environment possible - in world class skiing, mountaineering, ice and rock climbing venues. This cutting edge approach is extremely effective and judging from the praise we receive on our feedback forms (every course), participants are very satisfied and we have a strong following of return clients. We offer much more than beginner courses. One of our strengths also lies in the intermediate to advanced courses. These hone and sharpen ones skills for ultimate performance. We also train aspiring guides to become certified through our Mountain Master Program.
