A telemark instructor for the past 16 years, she believes that it is her job as an instructor to develop a solid platform from which the student can grow their own telemark personality. Robin has been an instructor with NET since 2002.

An avid sailor, she and her husband Bob Dow cruise in their Alberg 37 sloop ARTEMIS downeast every August. In addition to her grown up job at a landscaping company, she teaches pottery in her studio. Robin and Bob have two grown children who are both artist. Robin loves to cook and bakes all of their bread. You can always expect something yummy when you visit!

Hi Robin!

Thanks again for the lesson. We really enjoyed it and got a lot out of it. You are truly an amazing instructor ... to be able to somehow turn my fearful snowplows into step turns and tele turns was an excellent thing to learn (and helps me get my weight off my uphill ski which I am so fond of hanging on).

We actually both had our places of work close today - we have to make up the time by working 12 hour days (who cares when you can ski in fresh snow!) - but we got to play at Pat's Peak today which was such a treat....and very different from Wildcat. I actually went down a blue - a Pat's blue but I worked my way down - not all tele but I was able to turn/stop/turn/stop and then turn/turn/turn a few times!! Dave too was having a great time working on nice turns. Thanks to you :)
