Kids Lessons
From group to private lessons, our programs help kids, starting at four years old, build confidence and have fun on the snow. Group lessons focus on skill development through play and progression, with small class sizes and instructors who make learning exciting and approachable. For a more individualized approach, private lessons provide one-on-one coaching in skiing or riding, designed to match each child’s pace and comfort level.
Adult Learn to Ski & Ride
Discover the thrill of skiing or snowboarding in a supportive group setting designed for first-timers. Our two-hour group lesson includes equipment and a Learning Center lift ticket. Our experienced instructors will guide you through the basics, from getting comfortable on your gear to learning how to slide, turn, and stop. You’ll gain confidence, meet new people, and take your first steps toward a lifetime of winter fun.
Private Lessons
Need a little extra one-on-one coaching? Our private ski and snowboard lessons allow you to focus on what matters to you, whether that’s learning the basics, improving your form, or levelling up to take on more challenging runs.
The Half-Day & The Full-Day
Take your skiing to the next level with a lesson tailored to skiers and riders ages seven and older. The Half-Day Lesson is from 9 AM to 12 PM and offers personalized coaching, while the Full-Day is from 9 AM to 3 PM and provides instruction for up to four people, perfect for building skills, exploring new terrain, or refining technique on steeps and trees. Each session includes two short breaks for rest and refueling, and participants should be at the same ability level.
