Stability
Balance, body control and stable movement positions.
Agility & Reaction
Footwork, response and changing direction with control.
Strength & Endurance
Build strength and repeat the effort needed for play.

A technical cue is easier to apply when your body can control the position, manage the force and respond in time. We help you identify and train the physical qualities your activity requires.

Your questions, answered.
Do I need to be an advanced player?
No. The starting point depends on your movement capacity and experience. Foundations and performance training serve different stages of development.
Is snow sports preparation an on-snow lesson?
This pathway focuses on ground-based assessment and physical preparation. Contact LAF to discuss the relationship between your training goals and sport instruction.
Can I train for another sport?
