I had the pleasure of riding the ski lift with the founder of this school. Thanks for wearing your school jacket and having your picture on the website for me to confirm. One would think that you’d be polite while on the job in uniform and know much better than to behave like a complete jerk. Within 10 seconds, he (unprompted) decided to let me know only experts should be on the lift and continued to lecture me, a complete stranger, on who he thought should be on the lift. Apparently, he was displeased that I used one extra second to put my board on the rest because I wanted to be considerate of those around me. I was not sitting directly next to him yet he felt the need to pop over his student and make comments on what he thought my skills were. (Anyone who snowboards knows how awkward it is to get your board on the rest and don’t tell me I’m the only one who adjusts myself after I get on the lift) Even when we requested him to stop his uncalled for behavior, he continued to go on his Trump-like tirade as if he owned the mountain. I don’t know if he was discriminating against me because I’m a foreigner, my race, or that I was on a snowboard but it’s clear he is an angry individual with much larger issues. In my 21 years of snowboarding I’ve never come across a stranger this rude. Quite frankly, he was a lot of other words I don’t feel like writing. I’m most embarrassed for his young student next to him who had to witness all of this. Parents should know the examples he sets and the verbiage he chooses to teach his students. Disgusting.

Friends have booked a class with Esther for our two girls and Esther was simply amazing, so encouraging and great with children. I couldn't believe what my daughter was able to do after that 1 hour class. Thank you!!!
