We meet at the assembly point in front of our ski rental shop "Sportwelt Ettelsberg" (Zur Hoppecke 10, 34508 Willingen)
Our ski lessons for adults at Ettelsberg are ideal for beginners who want to learn skiing from scratch, or start skiing again. With a relaxed, structured approach, we combine practical exercises with professional guidance, helping you quickly gain confidence on the skis. In small groups of up to 10 participants, you will receive personalized attention and a learning experience tailored to your needs in the snow.
The course starts with an introduction to the ski equipment, allowing you to become familiar with your gear and get an initial feel for the movement. This step is crucial for building self-confidence and creating a solid foundation for your first turns. Next, you will practice basic techniques like balance, control, and proper body posture on beginner-friendly slopes.
Thanks to simple, targeted exercises under the professional guidance of our experienced ski instructors, you will easily master your first turns in the snow. In a short time, you will manage to glide, brake, and turn, and you can attempt your first easy descent.
Based on the instructor’s assessment, it is possible to move to another level during the course if a participant progresses quickly.
