On the weekend of 5-7 November, 2010 in Hasselt, Belgium 3 national slalom Number 1′s (USA, Belgium, France) joined the ranks of ICP Certified Slalom Instructors. Lead by ICP Examiner and former Slalom Freestyle Champion Naomi Grigg, the weekend was chock full of positive energy, expertise, and the desire to take slalom instruction to new heights. Friday saw a three hour theory marathon as freestyle slalom was torn down into its most basic components, and the differences between teaching of slalom vs other skating techniques were addressed. Saturday was spent applying ICP Level 1 lesson and teaching methodology to slalom, and Sunday focused on how ICP Level 2 teaching skills and methodology are vital to the success of communicating tricks and sequences of such complexity, before the tests began.
