About Rolf Jakob

Teaching has been my absolute passion since 25 years. As a professional sports teacher, in snow sports in particular, I can help you substantially improve your technique in snowboarding and alpine or cross-country skiing, both on the slopes and in deep snow. I am fluent in English, German, French and Dutch. Children can start taking lessons from as young as 2 years if circumstances are optimal; most, however, begin between snow sporting between 4 and 6 years. Adults can start at any age. With carefully tailored instructions I can lead most adults to ski securely and autonomously within 2-3 days to enjoy the ski slopes. If you have not skied in a while, if you have an injury or a recent operation, or if you simply feel insecure or afraid on the slopes, I will guide you in small steps to optimize your technique so that you can enjoy snow sports in confidence. I look forward to working with you. Rolf Jakob, MSc Snow sport teacher, Ski expert, Sports teacher, Movement scientist, Sport psychology expert

Had my first ever ski lesson with Rofi in Engelberg and honestly, it was brilliant! He is super friendly, really patient, and full of positive energy. it made such a difference for a total beginner like me. Being Swiss, he used proper ski terms which was great ‘cause I got to learn a bit of the culture too. As a solo traveller, I really appreciated him taking photos while I was learning! Every minute of the lesson was useful and fun. I’m 100% convinced he’s one of the top instructors in Switzerland!

I was very lucky to have Rolf Jakob as my ski instructor and he was more than great. I started skiing quite late at around 35 and I always had a lot of apprehension and fear. In 3 days, Rolf, in addition to being a great teacher, took the time to explain the technique but he is above all a sports coach who will deploy real mental preparation techniques to make my fears more aware. In 3 days I progressed and I especially enjoyed going down the very vertical slopes of Engelberg.

One step back, two step forwards! Rolf made me identify bad habits I had taken when skiing and which were blocking me from going on steeper slopes. We went back to the basics and at the end of the two hours I was finally comfortable on red slopes :)
