I'm looking at ski improvement courses. Any recommendations or ones to
avoid? (Level: intermediate-to-advanced )

Thanks!

Most Ski Resorts have only one ski school. Try that one.

I recommend my own DVD, "Skiing With Swords." It has already become a
best seller. You will learn how to spot Chai Tea skiiers, and how to
strike them down. It's available at Amazon.com

Are you asking where to go, or what company to use? personally I would
suggest looking at instructor training as you tend to get higher graded
instructors and more detailed feedback.

Really? not in Europe, I thought the USA was the land of unbridled
competition!

I'm looking for the same type of information, but I'm afraid I was
unable to find your DVD. When I went Amazon, I found the following
DVD's:

"Navigating by the Stars with a Garmin GPS Nearby"
"Hungarion Warriers in the Yacht Club? It's Not That Much of a
Stretch"
"Horvath - My Name will Live Forever!"
"Collecting Trophies and Treasure from All Points of the Compass"

But I was unable to locate "Skiing With Swords". Is this a new title,
or did I just key in the wrong search words? I used "skiing", "Chai
Tea", "impale" and "plunder".

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Rob

It sure worked for me.

The area I have been teaching at has it's own ski school, and half a dozen
independent "concession" schools.

The only ski improvement courses that I know of
are lessons offered at ski areas. Some areas teach
straight PSIA, some might teach Harb, some might
have some other system. But generally the ski
school at an area sticks to one party line or
another. Yes, I recommend lessons. After that,
mileage. Oh, yeah. Ski lessons are like anything
else. It's 90% instructor and 10% technique.

Ask around. See who has a good rep for what you
are looking for. We can't begin to make
recommendations here without even knowing what
part of the country you ski. For instance, if
you were to ski Killington, I'd say Jon Lamb.

Others might like other teachers at different
areas.

I am certain that when you put in, "skiing," and, "swords," there were
too many hits. There are many mighty warriors who have written about
this. Try the same words, but narrow it down to the bestsellers.
