When PSIA’s seven founders sat down to form the Professional Ski Instructors of America in May 1961 at Big Mountain in Whitefish, Montana, they had one goal: to create a standard of consistency for ski instruction that it would help draw new participants to the sport from across the nation. Now, six decades later, PSIA-AASI teaches everyone how to enjoy more than just alpine skiing; welcoming every snowsports discipline, ability, and person. In part three of this six-part series, listen to Marie Shaw and Grant Nakamura discuss the Junior Education Team, one of the six of the most notable teaching benchmarks from the past 60 years. Learn about the importance of providing a focus on kid-specific instruction for all disciplines recognizing that children’s instruction requires different skills and priorities than adult instruction.
