About Us
The Dream Was Simple...
To run ski camps free from constraints—where coaches could teach creatively, challenge widespread dogma, and share the deeper learning from their own skiing journey so their clients can make permanent and meaningful progress. This vision began with renowned ski instructor Tom Gellie, whose passion for innovation and freedom on the snow led him to bring together like-minded coaches Demelza Clay and Jason Simpson. Together, they formed The Ski Coach Collective. Their exclusive camps are designed to elevate your skiing—refining technique, building a strong foundation, and unlocking your best turns—all in an unforgettable, inspiring environment.
For Skiers Who Are Driven To Progress
Coaching Systems That Work
We stay up to date with the latest coaching and learning methodologies, helping you improve faster as you gain a deeper understanding of skiing.
Simplified Biomechanics
To truly level up your turns, skiers need to understand how their body moves on skis. We break down these essential principles using simple, practical language so you can apply them confidently on the slopes.
Enriched Learning With Video Analysis
Video is a powerful tool for skiers serious about improving. We use specialized coaching software to analyze your technique and provide annotated feedback videos. These recordings are yours to keep and review anytime after your camp.
Testimonials
Jason
“Jason is an amazingly adept coach. A critical thinker and observer who is always figuring out what’s “off” and how to improve it. His video analysis was so helpful, that I started looking at everyone else’s feedback for my own learning. Plus he’s fun and an all-around great guy”
Demelza
"I really enjoyed your teaching. Because you also have a background in kinesiology/physical therapy, your explanation in everything is well articulated and it makes sense a lot to me. Thanks for teaching us the forward moving ideas and techniques that connect skiing to other physical activities that I know of without the ski boots!! I love it. I love how my feet feel in the ski boots now and how they are working, and that's how it should be!!
Tom
The amount I've learnt from Tom & big picture skiing this season far exceeded my expectations. Tom has an incredible ability to break down techniques into actions that translate directly onto the snow & improved my skiing. They have an extensive library of videos, podcasts & content for all levels and it's all well organized. I have really enjoyed skiing & being part of the BPS community & look forward to next season improvement & fun. Thanks Tom & BPS team.
