Thanks, Toshi. The lessons were very good and helped both of us for the week. We both noted how well you observed technique and were able to work through drills to overcome issues. Will definitely call you again when next in Hirafu.

Is what you are doing really "Telemark"?
Lots of people try telemark without learning from Telemark pros. Learning from Alpine ski instructor may help your skiing skills, but not fundation of telemarking. That's the reason why telemark makes you really tired.
The instructor for your telemark lessons will be Toshi Sakamoto, who strongly involves TAJ "Telemark ski Association of Japan" and have strong connections with top telemarkers in other countries, such as the US which is one of the best "modern telemark ski" country in the world.
Actually, we are the only certified school as a "Telemark ski school" by official organization that offers lessons in English in Hokkaido. You can check what we have done for telemark folks other than normal lessons from here.
*We are certified school by TAJ (Telemark Association of Japan)
If you feel really tired after making just 20 turns, you definitely have something you need to work on. Not only good telemarkers, we are happy to help beginners, novice and powder beginners as well. If you want to try our lessons, please contact us early as possible because spaces are limited.
