Unique sensations

The technique of telemark differs from alpine skiing in its free heel and the lunge position specific to this discipline. This changes the way you distribute your weight, find your balance and steer your skis. The first steps therefore let you get used to the equipment and gradually get to grips with these new sensations.

The instructor then guides you through learning the movements needed to perform and link your turns in telemark skiing. The exercises evolve according to your level of proficiency to work on the precision of your support, coordination, and relaxation. This will gradually develop a smoother glide and greater confidence in your movements.
