Stronger on the slopes: Skiing injury prevention workshop

Join us at PhysioSpace for an informative and interactive workshop focusing on Ski Injury Prevention! Whether you're a seasoned skier or getting ready for your first trip to the slopes, this workshop will help you understand how to prepare your body, reduce your risk of injury and make the most of your time on the mountains. We'll explore: • Common skiing injuries: What they are, why they happen and some of the factors that can increase your risk. • Getting ski-ready: What factors to consider before you head out and how to prepare your body for the physical demands. • Your injury prevention programme: You'll take part in an interactive session and leave with your own in-depth, ski-specific injury prevention programme. Designed to help you build strength, improve conditioning and reduce your risk of common skiing injuries ahead of your next trip. This is a practical resource you can take home, follow and revisit as you prepare for the slopes. • Expert insights from Marie Batzl: Marie holds an MSc in Sport and Exercise Physiotherapy from Cardiff University, with a specialist interest in winter sports injuries. Having grown up near the Alps, she has skied from an early age and is now heading into her 18th season of snowboarding. Combining her personal passion with professional experience, Marie has worked as a physiotherapist with the GB Student Teams at the World University Games, supporting athletes across Alpine Skiing, Freeski and Freestyle Snowboard. We'll finish with an open Q&A, giving you the opportunity to ask questions, share any concerns and get expert advice directly from Marie.
