Grouse ski school
celebrates 20 years

THE NORTH Shore's
Grouse Mountain is
celebrating its 20th year in
the Ski School business.
Prior to 1964, a free ski-
school had been operated on
the slopes of Grouse Moun-
tain. The mountain’s popu-
larity was rapidly increasing
at the time, and its
management was beginning
to see the potential of a ski
school.
_ During that year, a young
Norwegian skier settled in
Vancouver, initially to teach
skiing at the newly
developed Whistler Moun-
tain. A shrewd businessman,
Ornulf Johnsen had taught
thousands to ski throughout
Norway, in South America,
and England. Grouse
management. saw in him
their ideal. man, and in the
winter of 1964, the Grouse
_Mountain- Ski School was
founded.
.. "Twenty years and over
150,000 skiers - later, the
school is a world-class ski
training centre. -
-- Phe school is best known
for its Headway program,
‘introduced by Johnsen: in
1972. The Headway method
consists of four two-hour
lessons using skis of
graduating lengths. The
method was greeted with ini-
tial scepticism by. many ski-
school professionals, ~ but
Johnsen stuck to his belief
that the shorter ski length

would enable a first-time
skier to learn the basic skills |

in a shorter time period.
>In December’ 1972, the
first Headway groups took
‘to the slopes, alongside stu-
‘dents learning to ski the
conventional way. While
these skiers were barely

making it across the training
area, their Headway
counterparts were skiing.

Headway was quickly
hailed as a major
breakthrough in learning the
art of skiing.

During the late 60s and
early 70s, Grouse Mountain
Ski School taught between

300 and 400 new skiers cach
yeur.

Johnsen believes the
secrets behind Grouse
Mountain Ski Schoo!'s suc-
cess ate good marketing
technique, a fleet of
Grouse-trained instructors,
and above all, state-of-the-
art training in skiing.
