Details
This winter, swap your skis for a snowboard and experience new thrills on the snow! Our snowboarding lessons in La Tania are available for adults and children from 8 years old curious to discover this fascinating discipline.
You don't need to know how to ski to try snowboarding: both sports use different techniques. It is therefore possible to start at any age: the first lessons will be devoted to finding your balance, discovering if you are goofy or regular, and then, at the end of the week, you will be able to take your first lifts and go down your first slope.
Groups are formed according to the age of the participants, allowing homogeneous learning. Our state-certified instructors will advise you and ensure your safety, allowing you to learn while having fun. Thanks to their insider tips, you will quickly become a snowboarding enthusiast!
Meeting time
We meet on the snow front 5 minutes before the beginning of the lessons. Different flags indicate each level. The course ends at the same place. Please stop by our office before the first lesson (ideally as soon as you arrive in the resort) to pick up your course card. La Tania is a pedestrian resort but car parks are available on the outskirts.
Ski pass
You don't need a ski pass on the first day of the lessons. The instructor will advise you when to buy it.
Good to know
- Equipment is not included in the price of the lesson. Please make sure you have a snowboard, boots, helmet, gloves & sunglasses or goggles at the start of the lesson. Helmets are not mandatory but are strongly recommended.
- For the Christmas holidays & school holidays in February, we recommend you book early in advance due to the high demand.
