Bruce is a CSIA Level 4 ski instructor and course conductor, the highest level of Canadian certification. Perhaps the only other higher achievement would be making the Interski demonstration team.
Interski congregates every 4 years to compare teaching methods and technique to ensure the development of snow sports worldwide. Canada has been at the forefront in teaching for the last 3 decades. Bruce has made the interski team 3 times. He has also competed 4 years in world cup freestyle skiing, ranking 7th in the world for his last 2 years.
Bruce has had many fantastic ski experiences, is passionate about the sport but above all is a dedicated teacher. As Bruce comments ‘I always have fun teaching gappers. I consider it the best job in the world. Come to ski with us and I will continue to pass on my passion for skiing to you’.
OUR ROOTS
We built our roots in the picturesque resort of Mont Tremblant, Canada for its varied terrain and friendly, authentic and down to earth vibe where you’ll feel right at home – perfect for learning to become a ski or snowboard instructor on a gap year adventure.
Apart from being one of the most exhilarating ski resorts in North America, Tremblant is an incredibly rich and diverse terrain, where you’ll discover natural wonders at every turn. This vast expanse of lakes, rivers, and beautifully untamed wilderness are bound to make an unforgettable impression on you.
The village of Tremblant is a bustling resort – packed with bars, cafes, boutique shops and a wellness centre.
A great ski hill, lively village with a real mountain community.
