Horst Abraham
Horst was born in Austria in 1941, where he learned to ski on handcrafted wooden skis. After moving to the United States, he began to gain national recognition for hisski teaching methodology. Throughout the 1960s, he assembled a group of experts to form the American Teaching Method (ATM) which has become the backbone of American ski instruction and ski teaching systems around the world. He later wrote “Skiing Right,” the official PSIA handbook.
