I would like to thank instructor Martina for an incredible experience and two amazingly productive and fun days! I would highly recommend Martina as an instructor to anyone who dreams of trying snowboarding. Personally, I had absolutely no prior experience neither with skiing nor snowboarding. I can barely stand on ice skates, I fall off rollerblades, and I even once broke both of my arms just from dancing. So the fact that on the second day I was already riding down the slope on my own with a decent level of confidence feels truly unbelievable for me, especially as a very clumsy person. Martina was teaching both me and my boyfriend, who had a brief snowboarding experience in the past. She did an excellent job balancing her attention between us and creating a personalized learning approach that matched our slightly different skill levels and very different temperaments. What I appreciated the most: 1. A very friendly and welcoming atmosphere 2. Gentle teaching with absolutely no stress 3. Martina supported me at every step and celebrated even the smallest progress I started at a level where I couldn’t even stand steadily without support. Martina had to hold my hands and help me get up. And the very next day, I was riding on my own, turning while moving, starting from the top of the slope, and instead of being scared, I was genuinely having fun. I would also like to highlight the high level of service and rest of the team overall: excellent help with rental equipment selection, gear in great condition, high-quality boards and boots, all of this really makes a difference if you want to have a positive experience. My personal advice for beginners: make sure to buy or rent protective gear for your tailbone and knees in advance.
Highly recommended! It was a great experience. The instructor was very positive, professional, and made learning really enjoyable.
Our instructor was clearly very experienced and open minded. Spoke good English and was very patient the whole time even when we arrived late for the first 2 days. The same goes for the lady working at the desk of the gear rental shack. Made the whole trip very enjoyable and memorable for both me and my girlfriend.
