"I rather not make a fool of myself in front of all of these people so, let's look for one." She replied. We walked around looking for one until we saw an older man instructing a group of people.
We immediately joined the group. "Looks like a couple more people joined our group and I don't see anyone else coming so, let's get started." The man smiled.
"I'm Andy and I will be your ski instructor." He smiled, introducing himself.
"At its core, skiing is all about making turns to control your speed down a hill. Turns don't just change the direction you're going, they slow you down too." Andy informed us.
"The most important part of your skis is the little metal parts along the edge of your bases. These dig into the snow and allow you to turn and stop. You control them by tilting the side of your ski to side. Your skis will naturally want to turn whichever way you lean them since leaning engages their inside edge." He told us.
"Turns come from your whole body. To turn on skis, look where you want to go, engage your core, swivel your hips, bend your knees, and roll your ankles to turn." Andy instructed us as he began to demonstrate what he was talking about.
"So try to make sure you're not just focusing on one part of your body. Beginner skiers tend to try to do everything with just their ankles, forcing the skis to turn." He told us.
"This is tiring and makes it hard to stay in control. Instead, pivot and lean with your whole body." Andy continued. "What do you think? Do you think you can do this?" I whispered to my girlfriend.
