CANADA – Ski le Gap proves again that it is quality and not quantity that rules! The Ski le Gap “Dream Team” has 22 members – small when you realise that the CSIA has qualified over 20 000 instructors! Ski le Gap has two of its members chosen to represent Canada out of ten possible places.

Maggie Graham and Roger Castonguay are going to Austria in 2011! Here is an excerpt from an interview with them:

Q: So what exactly is “Interski”?
A: “It is a congress that every four years brings together the best ski instructors from ski-teaching nations around the world in order to share technical and teaching skills. The Canadian delegation will be there to research the approaches of other nations, and to contribute our own innovations to the world scene.”

Q: It sounds like being selected to represent Canada for Interski is a huge achievement.
A: “Yes, Interski is the ultimate achievement for ski instructors. It`s like the Olympics for an athlete, in terms of sharing and personal achievement.”

Q: Has Ski le Gap been to Interski before?
A: “As it is such a prestigious honour to have been chosen above all other top-level ski instructors in the country, you would think that we would be the first, but actually this will be the 5th year that Ski le Gap’s instructors have been selected to represent Canada! I`m very proud to be following after Ski le Gap legends Gilles and Bruce!”

Q: How did you make it?
A: “At Ski le Gap, we are qualified to the highest level and there is a philosophy of on-going training. Every day we have training sessions to push our own limits. Being coached by our ski director, Gilles Daigle (CSIA level IV examiner, CSIA level IV, CSCF level 2) combined with the enthusiasm of our team has made it possible for us to push our own limits.
