3 hour mid-day private with three siblings from Maryland: Preston (8), Aidan (10), and Brennan (12). Word from the parents was that they had been skiing Sunday and Monday (first time ever on skis). I started them out with warm-up laps on The Big Easy, then moved to "Village Run". Worked on focusing on using the turn as the main means of stopping, as well as controlling speed. Hit up Arrow and eventually Vista Express before doing some warm-down laps on Big Easy with their dad. The daughter (Aidan) picked up on the whole turn thing, whilst the two boys defaulted to straightline wedging unless under close Spencervision.
