5.0 out of 5 stars
You are your own best teacher!,
By Jim Spaller (Syracuse, New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Skiing with the Whole Body: Your Ticket to the Expert Slopes (Paperback)
If you love to ski and want to improve faster than traditional methods will allow, this book is for you. Rather than showing you a standard and having you try to produce the movements that meet the external standard, Mr. Heggie teaches you how to teach yourself the small simple component movements which when combined produce the desired end result skill. The lessons are easy to follow and produce immediate results. Mr. Heggie makes the book very interesting and easy to read by including real life examples of skiers that he has trained in every chapter. I would highly recommend this book for any skier to take his enjoyment of skiing to the next level.
