theskischools.com is a fantastic tool for all snowsports enthusiasts to locate snowsports professionals in 14 of the top European winter resorts of Europe.

With a growing number of people visiting the theskischools.com and family resorts to search for skiing, snowboarding, telemark lessons and mountain guiding, it seemed the perfect place to launch a ski snowsports blog that answers some of the questions our visitors have and get opinions from key members of the snowsports industry.

This first post is designed as an introduction and a guide to the kind of articles we will be featuring every month throughout the year.

Naturally, because we are a web-based service for locating snowsports professionals in Europe we will be looking at ski schools, skiing instructors and mountain guides who work in winter resorts every day throughout the skiing season.

The growing number of ski schools, snowboard schools and private instructors in ski resorts, along with more specialised services like telemark instruction and mountain guiding means it is not just about turning up to your destination and going to the local ski school anymore. There is an abundance of choice out there and this not only drives up the quality of instruction but also allows you to choose what kind of ski or snowboard school you are looking for.

Of course this can make things more complicated, as there is so much choice it is sometimes hard to know where to go. But this is where we can help. We will answer, to the best of our abilities, any of your questions relating to ski instruction, snowboard tuition or mountain guiding.
