For beginners, the focus is on mastering the basic techniques such as snowploughing and first turns. The lesson begins with an introduction to the ski equipment and a brief warm-up on gentle slopes, ensuring you are comfortable and ready to start your skiing journey. This stage is crucial as it helps build confidence and understanding of the basic movements. Our experienced instructors will guide you through these initial steps on the beginner-friendly slopes, perfect for gaining balance and coordination. You will gradually progress to more challenging slopes as you become more confident, learning to control speed and navigate turns safely. Each skill taught is designed to build your confidence and ensure you are comfortable on the skis.
For intermediate and advanced skiers, our lessons will refine your technique with a focus on parallel skiing and handling steeper slopes. You will receive tips on improving your style and efficiency, as well as personalized feedback to help you master advanced maneuvers.
