Dry Ski School
Each year more and more Britons are escaping from the damp greyness of their island to the exhilarating snowiness of winter at it's best in the skiing countries of Europe . And each winter more and more of them are going to the Dry Ski School run by Lillywhites Sport Store in the West End of London to get some of the year's stiffness out of their joints and accustom themselves in advance to the strains and twists of sport . This is the sixth season of the indoor course , presided over by Anni Maurer , a former Swiss ski champion , who recently appeared on English television . She specially designed the short , curved skis which are used in her classes . Sometimes , in the ' season ' which runs from November to the end of February , she has as many as five half - hour classes ( from 12-18 pupils in a class ) in one evening . Her clients , as our pictures show , are both sexes and all ages , ranging from slim 18-year old typists to paunchy , determined 60-year-old business men and grey - haired , gallant housewives . When they reach the slopes they will certainly have got over the preliminary muscular agonies and can spend their holiday weeks in improving , or establishing their technique .
