Synopsis Effortless Skiing by : Natalia Dounskaia
Whether you are a recreational or expert skier or ski instructor, this book is for you!Are you a recreational skier, have taken lessons, and still your movements are not quite right and your leg muscles get tired and sore? You will be amazed how quickly you can improve your skiing and get rid of the muscle sourness forever by using the two-step technique presented here.Are you an expert? Knowing what your body does during skiing will allow you to ski even better and teach novices more effectively!Reading this book will make you look at skiing as you have never yet before. Forget about all instructions you have been given. Skiing is simple: It includes only two actions performed successively, in two steps. Many skiing movement features you have been taught to produce will emerge naturally, as a consequence of the two-step technique.The two-step technique is a result of recent advances in research of control and coordination of complex human movements.Discovering the biomechanics of skiing overturns our previous understanding of how we ski. If you think that skiing is difficult, this means you were given wrong instructions. This book explains it all in a simple way!
