About This Webinar
PSIA-AASI Western Region webinars are one-hour online sessions designed to deepen your knowledge and support your development as a snowsports professional -- all from the comfort of home. Each session is 1 CEU. Understanding how the body moves on snow is fundamental to both personal performance and effective teaching. This webinar explores biomechanical principles that underpin skiing and riding, and how that knowledge translates to better instruction.
What You Will Gain
By the end of this session, you will be able to:
- Identify key biomechanical principles at work in skiing and snowboarding
- Connect body mechanics to the Technical Fundamentals
- Apply biomechanical understanding to movement analysis and lesson design
What to Expect
- Overview of foundational biomechanics relevant to snowsports
- Examples connecting body position, force, and movement outcomes
- Discussion of how this knowledge supports both personal improvement and teaching effectiveness
