Testimonials

“I was extremely satisfied with Andrew’s coaching lesson. He was able to instill practical skills and confidence in my abilities, especially understanding heel braking while snowboarding. He is clear in his instructions, and really expects you to do the correct moves. I would highly recommend Andrew as he is patient , knowledgeable and able to observe student progression.”

“I hadn’t skied in 20 years when I hired Andrew to help me ‘re-learn’ - we pretty much started from scratch. Andrews teaching style enabled me to quickly learn the key skills required to hit the slopes. Andrew is a highly experienced instructor and was able to combine theory and practical sessions. He always ensured it was a fun, safe and productive learning environment with clearly defined objectives and next steps. I would have no hesitation in recommending Andrew to anyone requiring professional ski instruction.”

“I am not certain that I would have become so passionate about skiing had it not been for the training I received from Andrew. I took up skiing when I was 64 years old. Andrew was my instructor at Urban Ski where I had booked a one-on-one session on the simulator. In a very short time he took me through the basics, patiently and systematically explaining to me equipment, stance and balance. More importantly, in that short time, he instilled in me a confidence to actively take up the sport. I continued my training on the simulators with Andrew as my coach moving up to Level 3 (Urban Ski Standards). I would recommend Andrew to any beginner and intermediate skier. He is an excellent communicator providing clear and thorough direction that helped me understand what I needed to do to improve my skiing ability. He is a superb trainer who paces the instruction based on his student’s ability and capability. He has an infectious personality and a love for the sport that will definitely motivate you.”

“Andrew (my snowboarding shifu) has helped me with my balance tremendously. I have always been afraid to fall but he was very attentive to my needs and always managed to stop the belt in time. I trust him and that really helped me with my training. He also pointed out my weaknesses and helped me improve. As a result, I was able to enjoy my snowboarding trips to the max. Andrew was tons of fun. He pushes you further each time but never too much for you to bear. He is also a very friendly and helpful person with a great character! He organizes overseas group trips and tries to include his students in these trips. On top of that, he gives many tips and valuable advice down to the basics, starting with the gear (head-to-toe) you should have or can have. I would definitely recommend him to teach my friends and family.”

“Getting back into skiing after a hiatus of nearly eight years was made much easier – all thanks to Andrew. At the beginning, it was difficult for me to even balance on the skis… especially on the elevator-type slope at his indoor ski school. However, under Andrew’s dedicated guidance through four private lessons, I regained my confidence in skiing. Andrew was incredibly knowledgeable and patient. He was able to explain things in ways that I found easy to understand. His focus on improving my basic techniques had laid a strong foundation for me to progress onto steeper slopes. He was also able to pin-point technical problems and would address them effectively through progressive exercises. Andrew’s cheerful and friendly personality was infectious too. Lessons with him were never dull. His passion for the sport was clearly evident in his personal stories and in his enthusiasm to teach. Three years have passed, and I am still enjoying the sport. The skills that I’ve learnt from Andrew has enabled me to explore different slopes in Japan, which I previously could only dream of. It was such a great experience to be coached by Andrew and would highly recommend him!”

“Andrew is a fun-loving and encouraging snowboard instructor; he is able to communicate salient points after observation and pick-out and train-up confidence! He is the reason I lost a lot of fear in having to go on toe edge! He even bothers to share snowboarding videos showing good examples of posture and movement to inspire the class. I appreciate his patience and jolly personality infinitely - it's wonderful to have gained a good friend on top of a snow sport instructor!”
