And so after the splendid 5 days of snow, a bit of rain, and other 5 great days of skiing, the course has arrived to its end. Through these 10 days we've learned to teach people how to become skiers, and we've learned about how to transmit our sensations to the future skiers. Skiing is not about memorizing and executing an action, but it is about feeling and transmitting sensations, both with the skis and the snow. It's not just a matter of doing the same thing all the time, because the snow conditions change, the slopes change, and even the boots change, so we have to learn to adapt to these changes, and the only way to do that is by feeling. By learning this, it is a lot easier to "read" the track and to feel secure in any situation.
Sierra Nevada has really impressed me, and it was a perfect environment to learn, and to enjoy the company of people who love to do what I do. Plus, we were at such a high altitude (2.000ms or more), that now that I'm back in Portugal, or in Madrid, I barely get tired when doing sports, yay!
Conclusion, I should go more often to Sierra Nevada, haha.
