Tom Gellie
Ski Coach
Tom Gellie’s skiing journey began with cross-country as a child, but it wasn’t until he was 22, after completing a Bachelor of Applied Science, that he discovered alpine skiing. His strong scientific background sparked a fascination with the biomechanics of the sport. Instead of focusing on speed or technique alone, Tom sought to understand how the body moves, why certain techniques work, and how small adjustments can dramatically improve performance.
This deeper approach set Tom apart from other coaches. He saw skiing as an art form, where every movement has purpose and every muscle plays a role. To share his insights, he created Big Picture Skiing, a platform that blends biomechanics with practical coaching. Through his videos and lessons, Tom helps skiers at all levels unlock their potential by understanding the science behind their movements and refining their technique.
Today, Tom is a leading expert in skiing biomechanics, offering a unique coaching style that combines science and the artistry of movement. His approach has transformed how skiers approach performance, focusing on the small details that make a big difference. Tom’s journey from a curious child in the Australian Alps to an internationally recognized expert underscores the power of passion, curiosity, and knowledge.
