My boys will definitely sign up with Rhythm again next season !! Thank you so much for giving us the most memorable experience in Niseko!!"
"My children participated in the Rhythm Kid's programs, and they had an incredible time while significantly improving their skills. Despite skiing and snowboarding for five consecutive days, they didn’t feel tired at all!"
"The kids' snowboard program is excellent! My son is 11 years old, and he had a lot of fun with 2 other kids who are about the same level. Coach Joel guided them to all the fun and challenging runs, guided them to cross mountains and taught them many tricks and flips. It was amazing to see their progression throughout the week. Thank you!"
"Rhythm Rides Kids program was an incredible experience for my children! Highly recommend this program for anyone looking for a great ski experience for their kids!"
