Sharon Dale
Thirty-Plus Year Vail Instructor!
Level 3 Alpine Certification & certified in Adaptive, Telemark & Children's.
Instructor of the year 1991 & voted one of SKI magazine's Top 100 in 2003.
"Skiing with women's groups are my most favorite days on the mountain. Everyone is supportive of each other, which allows change to occur. Many end up with ski buddies for life. We help each other feel safe enough to ski things we might not usually do! I find the womens groups excel way more than a traditional group!
I love the Girlz on Edge Program, Deb brings skiers in that also don't mind having a bit of fun which really makes for a great three day program. It is packed full of skiing, apres, and great learning and sharing".

I didn't grow up in the mountains but my passion for skiing brought me to the French Alps in 1997. From then, the love affair with skiing grew and grew.
French certified in Alpine skiing, I moved to Vail for an incredible winter (2005/06) and never went back to teaching in France! I'm now a trainer and examiner for PSIA-RM : the learning journey never stops! I love how the lessons are really centered on the guest here and we make sure we adapt to the clients' needs. That means lessons for women by women, making it a safe, fun and encouraging environment to learn! My favorite part is when I meet a student in the lift line and they tell me "Remember when you made us jump the cornice in Blue Sky Basin? I thought I could have never done that!"
