Ski with Confidence Coaching Course 

Whilst most of the time, we love the exhilaration we get from skiing, we know that not everyone hits the slopes feeling fearless and that even the strongest skiers can have a wobble.

Whether you’re returning after an injury, feeling nervous about keeping up, or just want to enjoy skiing more, this course is for you.

Peak Retreats is excited to be collaborating with mindset coach Louise Pode at ProAbility to bring you an online group coaching course for the 2025/26 season.

Course participants will attend a series of four live online group coaching sessions in the run up to their February half term Peak Retreats holiday followed by a reflective session after their trip.

You’ll explore what’s behind any anxiety you might have around skiing and learn simple, effective tools to feel calmer and more in control.

What does the course cover?

Over five tailored, 60-minute online sessions, you'll work together to understand what's building that feeling of anxiety and develop the tools to manage it.

You'll come away with practical strategies, a calmer mindset, and the confidence to relax into your skiing.

The course will cover:

• Your personal 'why' - discovering what skiing means to you and setting a goal that feels inspiring
• Understanding your fear - identifying where your anxiety and concerns come from and how to manage it
• Simple tools to calm your nerves - so you feel more relaxed before and during skiing
• Mindset shifts to build resilience - learning to reframe challenges and build self-trust
• Celebrating progress - recognising what's working and how to keep growing

After each session, you'll receive a follow-up email with key takeaways, insights, and helpful resources to keep your momentum going.

What you'll gain

The course is designed to both work on your mindset in the long term as well as providing practical tools to help you manage your feelings of anxiety in the moment.

Participants can expect to:

• Discover a personalised toolkit to manage your anxiety and build confidence
• Build a more relaxed mindset and a sense of control on the slopes
• Experience a renewed ability to enjoy skiing - whether that's gliding down a green run or feeling calm on a red

Course format

The course will take place online via Zoom. These will be live group sessions with a maximum of 12 participants.

Each session will be 60-minutes long from 19.30-20.30

An investment in your skiing

The cost of this exclusive course is £275 per person.

This programme is more than coaching, it’s a chance to reclaim the joy of skiing without the pressure or fear. Whether you’re facing nervous anticipation or past negative experiences, you'll work gently and practically with Louise to help you feel more in control and calm on the slopes.
