Jude,
I share your pain, as I went through the same issue last year.
The Fernie Alpine Ski Team has a very good club. http://www.ferniealpineskiteam.ca/
The club has launched some awesome skiers, most noteably Olympian and World Cup victors Emily Brydon and Nancy Green. They seem to work with all ski levels, and it might make sense for your long stay.
I hope this works for you.
