What to Expect
In the kids snowboarding lessons in Grindelwald, we offer our beginners perfect accompaniment on the board. We have specifically selected exercises for every level. Our team will guide children step by step so that they feel safe and comfortable on the board after a short time.
Our professionally trained snowboard instructors train your children with the latest teaching methods. With a maximum number of 8 participants, we can adapt perfectly to their needs and guarantee not only their safety but also rapid learning progress. The skiing area of Grindelwald offers around 64 kilometres of easy blue pistes for them to practice and train on.
As a beginner, they start with a few balance as well as sliding and gliding exercises. With the help of the group, who will motivate them, and their instructor, they will soon make their first turns. We look forward to welcoming all young snowboarders to our snowboarding lessons and to optimizing each of their turns together!
Meeting Time
On the first day, we will meet at 9:40 at Bodmi, at 9:00 at the Firstbahn valley station, or at 13:40 at Bodmi Arena (Terrassenweg 104, 3818 Grindelwald) or at Schreckfeld station.
Afterwards, we meet at the selected meeting point.
Ski Pass
The use of the magic carpet is already included in the lesson price. As soon as skiing on the platter lift starts, all participants need a ski pass for the Bodmi.
Good to Know
Please note that a minimum of 3 participants is required for the group lesson to take place. If fewer than 3 participants sign up, private lessons will be offered as an alternative for an additional fee.
My daughter (13 years old) was on a board for the first time. It was cool that there were only 3 children taking the course. Pascal, the snowboard instructor, did a great job. He was very patient and was able to teach them a lot in the 3 hours. My daughter was able to ride the "Tellerlilift" on the same day and then ski down a slope on the Scheidegg the next day. Many thanks for Pascal's efforts!

What should I wear for my lessons?
You should wear warm clothing suitable for winter sports. Other accessories such as gloves, a ski mask and sunglasses are strongly recommended.
When should I collect my equipment?
You must arrive at the first lesson with your equipment (skis and poles or snowboard, and boots). If you do not have your own equipment, make sure to allow enough time to collect it from the rental shop so as not to delay the start of the lesson. Some shops even offer the option of collecting equipment the day before your first day of hire.

Wearing a helmet is compulsory for children in some countries, but it is strongly recommended for everyone, regardless of age.
