Main information
What to expect
Our kids ski lessons "Polar Bears" in Zermatt are ideal for little racers and those who still want to become some. We welcome children between 3 and 5 years of all levels to spend fun hours in the snow with them.
Together with our qualified ski instructors, beginners learn the right way to handle the new equipment. After exciting braking and shooting exercises, the children already try their first turns in the snow plough. Kids who have already mastered the snowplough can continue to improve their technique and venture onto steeper slopes, gaining more and more confidence. Advanced skiers work their way towards the perfect parallel turn step by step with level and age appropriate exercises.
These lessons focus on fun and games, which makes learning easier for the little ones. In small groups of a maximum of 3 children, the ski instructor can respond ideally to each participant, so that learning successes are not long in coming.

An excellent experience for our first time skier. At departure on day one our 3 year old was teary, but by pick up he didn’t want to leave. He had five fabulous days of skiing with Roger and one other student. Roger was a warm, confident, and skilled instructor. Our son loved spending his mornings on the slopes and can’t wait to come back.
