Private Ski & Snowboard Lessons

Private lessons are the only option available for adults with two group sizes available. Your friends and family can join your lesson with a minimum age of 4 years old. Bookings are charged per instructor hired, so the more people in your group, the more economical a lesson will be. The two options are:
