MEET YOUR COACHES
World Cup Racer | Olympic Athlete | Mentor
Dave Ryding
Britain’s most successful alpine ski racer. Over a decade ranked among the top 10 in the world, including a World Cup victory that inspired a generation.

Elite Ski Coach | Performance Strategist | Adventurer
Tom Waddington
Tom has spent his career helping athletes refine technique and unlock potential. A BASI trainer and ski race coach with international experience, Tom specialises in turning raw skill into consistent, race-ready performance. With a coach’s eye for detail, he breaks movements down to what really matters - helping athletes correct inefficiencies and find more speed.
But Tom’s expertise goes beyond the slopes. He is one of the few people to have rowed solo across the North Atlantic Ocean, a 2,000+ mile test of endurance, mindset, and resilience. The same qualities that carried him across an ocean are now built into his coaching - teaching athletes how to stay composed, focused, and strong under pressure.join the waitlist
