Ski competitor, dancer, stage performer, entertainer, innovator and passionate coach, Alan Schoenberger has won world acclaim and admiration on many fronts. His eclectic talents took ballet skiing out of the realm of "hot dog" skiing and put it on the world's freestyle skiing agenda. Those talents also brought him 16 first or second-place finishes in international ballet skiing competitions between 1974 and 1976, including the World Ballet Skiing Championship in 1976.
His innovative flare developed the ski carpet, used at theater and ski venues, training facilities and ski shows. A graduate of Utah State University, Alan has been showcased in numerous television programs, books, training videos and international publications.

He starred in over a dozen ski films including the influential “Blizzard of Aahhh’s.” While filming in Chamonix, he became captivated by the terrain beyond the resort boundaries.
