Once mastered is incredibly effortless
I really enjoyed skiing with John; your unique method is
superb; I have been skiing for over 45 years and have never had two days
like I had with you!! The "Clendenin Method" is quite unique and once mastered
is incredibly effortless, especially taught by such great guys! Congratulations!
I look forward to visiting (and skiing) with you next winter in Aspen

My expectations were more than exceeded
John, I wanted to thank you again for the wonderful time that I had
in Aspen during both of the lessons and the camp. My expectations were
more than exceeded with the lessons on Monday and Tuesday. I think I was
pretty tired by the weekend and don't feel like I was as consistent as I
was on Tuesday, but I still learned a tremendous amount and will continue
to read the book and practice as much as I can.

Another transforming ski experience
I just returned from my second Clendenin Method Camp (Feb 3-4, 2007)
and I wanted to thank you and your staff for another transforming ski
experience. Each time I attend the camp my skiing improves, and most
importantly it's hard to wipe the smile off my face. For weeks afterwards
I am insufferable, telling all of my ski friends how great bumps are, and
why weighting the uphill ski is the only way to go. Your instructors are
encouraging, resourceful, enthusiastic, and a blast to ski with and learn
from (thanks Lisa and Steve). The individual attention and low student/instructor
ratio is remarkable, it feels more like a private one on one than a group
camp. You run your business with great respect for your clients - honoring
our investment of time and money with your focus on our improvement and
positive expereince. You deliver a rare product - highly professional,
incredibly effective, and downright fun. I can't wait to come back.

What was most satisfying about your Clendenin Method experience
The ability of the instructors to relate complicated issues in simple language and
the dramatic improvement for all of us in just one day.
Learning the technique for skiing from the feet up. Most other
programs have unclear concepts described by vague language. John has the
ability to teach in understandable terms that make sense. At no point is
there anything taught that has to be "unlearned" later as the skier advances.
John's method really helped get me on skis quickly. In fact I
stopped skiing about 20 years ago beasue it was so difficult. John was
absolutely fabulous in teaching me how to ski, His personality is fun
so it makes the whole process so much easier. He also does everything first
classs and has all the details under control. In short, it's fun, easy and
you are skiing in no time.
Having real professionals teach a system that not
only makes sense, but works on the first day. Everyone is accomodating and
makes each skier fell special and are good at building confidence.
Plus John, Bill, Garth, and Steve are very handsome, very smooth and a lot of fun.

Thanks for the... everything
After years of attempting to improve my level of skiing
without success, I finally believe I can actually improve - I'll take the
Clendenin Method with me. Comfort on all terrain is sooo different.
Great coaches all. John - you make getting better fun - thanks so very
much. Small groups give lots of individual attention

Almost as good as sex
The enthusiasm of the instructors, John's personality is
infectious. I learned more in the last two days than I thought possible.
The camp surpassed my wildest expectations. I now love bumps - almost
as good as sex.

You really deliver the goods
Unlike so many pretenders, you really deliver the goods.
Your theory works, the simulator is extremely effective, and the
instruction top notch. And beyond all you foster progress through
humor and your commitment

5-star camper testimonial
February 9, 2006
Hi John,
I know you know I am your Camps biggest fan but you need to hear it from the horse’s mouth once in awhile.
 You, your coaches & staff offer the finest ski instruction of any resort area and we as students feel very fortunate to have the benefit of your personal attention and the benefit of your years of instruction refinement as reflected in the Clendenin Method and your camps.
As you know I have attended many camps over a period for many years. I must congratulate you on your continual search for excellence and improvement in the camp format. You indeed have succeeded. The past two camps have been the Best for me and of course I hear the scuttlebutt and the consensus of opinion is you are doing a great job! Sometimes it is not easy to absorb all of the intricacies of the camps for coach & student but we recognize you as an inspiring enthusiastic dedicated skier coach seeking to share your in depth understanding of the sport with those of us wishing to improve our skills. We do appreciate your ‘putting’ up with us…we are very concentrated & focused throughout the camp and do not always perform at our best. But our common goal is the same; that of Improvement.
So …a short note of THANKS to you, John! A difficult job, well done!
Best,
David
