Discover the joys of skiing with our dedicated first timers ski lessons for adults, suitable for participants from 16 years of age. If you are stepping into ski boots for the very first time, this is the perfect starting point. Nestled in the picturesque Ötztal region, the resort provides an ideal, safe backdrop for your inaugural experience. The lessons are conducted in small groups of up to 10 participants, ensuring you receive individual attention, immediate feedback, and a supportive learning environment.
The lesson begins with getting you comfortably familiar with your equipment. The focus is exclusively on building a strong foundation like understanding and safely managing your skis and boots. Safety and movement skills are taught to help you learn how to walk, glide, and stop effectively using the snowplough technique. You will then practice your first turns on very gentle, flat terrain. This initial phase is crucial for building confidence and ensuring you understand the fundamentals of control and balance.
We utilize the gentle beginner slopes of the Ötztal, which are carefully selected to minimize stress and maximize learning. The resort features excellent facilities, including modern, easy-to-use beginner lifts and dedicated teaching areas. Throughout the lesson, our certified instructors prioritize safety, clear instruction, and steady progression. We ensure every participant progresses at a comfortable pace, allowing you to quickly gain the necessary skills to move independently on the snow. By the end of your lesson, you will have gained the essential skills and confidence needed to safely navigate green slopes, ready to continue your skiing adventure in the beautiful Ötztal.
We meet at our ski school office and rental shop, 15 minutes before the start of the lesson. If you booked with equipment (to be added to your cart during check-out), please be at the shop 1 hour before the start to pick up your equipment.
