Doran Key deserves kudos as ski coach

   I have known Doran Key of the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation for many years now, but until recently I had never had the opportunity to watch her in action as a ski coach. I knew she had an amazing reputation, but I had no idea just how good she was with kids.
   I recently got to ski with her and her ski team on two occasions and was blown away by her enthusiasm, energy, knowledge and organization. She exudes excitement and positive energy and the kids just feed off of it. When she speaks to her group, she lets them have a say in what they are doing, making everyone feel a part of the decisions. She explains everything with complete organization, not easy to do standing on a ski run, so the kids know exactly what they are supposed to do. She also makes sure every child is comfortable, as she is extremely tuned in to their feelings.
   When it comes to teaching skills, she has all kinds of fun tricks that get the kids thinking about what they are supposed to be doing in an exciting way. She does all this while keeping track of other groups going on at the same time. We are very fortunate in our valley to have Doran Key coaching our kids. Thank you, Doran!
