PRIVATE LESSONS

Make the most of your time on the slopes with a private lesson. For private lessons, you pay for the instructor, not per participant. You can have up to six participants in one class for the same price as one participant.

This is the BEST way to improve fast with more time working on your skills. Whether you are a first-timer or an experienced skier looking to improve on technique or get rid of bad habits, we have an instructor that will suit your needs.

Instructors are limited so it is recommended to make a booking well in advance.
