Improver / Refresher Courses

This course is aimed at people who have at least one week on snow, and can snowplough turn as minimum standard. We aim to refine your abilities by reminding you about posture and balance over your feet and making sure your basic knowledge of steering is accurate. We can then help you develop these skills in an efficient manner towards parallel skiing. If you have more than one week’s experience this course would still be of major benefit to you.

Ok, that was the techno speak, here’s the easy version! If you’re rusty, frightened, or plain just don’t know if you’re doing it right, book a place!

The courses consist of 4 one hour sessions.

Cost: £55 (15 years +)

Snowboard Beginners Courses

This is a 4 week course of one and half hour lessons. Minimum group size 3, maximum group size 5.

Learning to snowboard involves a more hands on style of instruction – ie you need your hand held – hence the smaller group sizes and the increased cost. If it’s just you this is the most economical way of learning to snowboard, if there’s more of you try private tuition.

Cost: £100
