It is important to know that your instructor or guide will always pay the most attention to the person with the least experience or the youngest participant. To ensure the safety of each group, there can be no more than two ability levels in difference between lesson participants. For example levels two and three could take a lesson together, but levels three and five could not.
No. All of our Winter Lessons and Programs are single disciplined focused only - so you will have to book separately.
We are passionate about introducing kids to skiing and snowboarding young. However, due to the physical and developmental differences between young children and adults we are unable to cater to a combined lesson. You are, however, welcome to watch your child enjoy their first day. We recommend that you do so at a distance, this will allow your little one to bond with their instructor and enjoy their day without distractions.
