Offering a simple, yet detailed explanation of how to move your muscles, bones and joints to allow you to ski with more ease and less work. In addition to the text of the book, there are movement lessons incorporated into the book which are meant to be done at home or in a comfortable space, away from skiing. The movement lessons are designed to bring the skier's awareness to how he moves the parts of the body that are involved in balancing, turning, edging and managing pressure on the skis. By doing the movement lessons (and the shorter, "reminder" lessons, meant to be done on the chairlift while skiing or immediately before skiing), the skier will learn the movement patterns that are necessary to get the optimum performance from his skis, and will become more likely to choose these newer movement patterns instead of the older, less effective movement patterns he may have been familiar with before. The book is packaged with five audio CD's which contain the audio recording of the book, the recording of the instructions for the movement lessons, and the instructions for the reminder lessons.
