Main information
What to expect
These private ski lessons in Engelberg are specially designed for all skiers over the age of 50, who would like to feel more confident on skis and improve their skiing technique. The lessons are also perfect if you had some years away from skiing and want to get started again.
Thanks to my years of experience in ski and sports teaching with adults 50+ I can help you realize your goals and build more confidence on all kinds of slopes. You will learn to have better control of your skis with less effort and enjoy a great new skiing experience. Soon you'll be able to ski longer and get tired less quickly, resulting in even more fun while skiing.
The Engelberg ski resort has the perfect slopes for skiers of all levels of experience, so lessons can be tailored to your personal needs and goals. You can take part in the private ski lessons alone to benefit from one-on-one instruction, or share the lessons with up to 3 other friends and family members.
I (33 years) introduced myself to the course without any previous experience worth mentioning. The teacher picks you up with his lessons from where you are with your experience and adapts wonderfully to the level. Concrete/practical/comprehensible suggestions for beginners are made throughout the lesson to optimize the technique. The teacher will certainly demand that you be "healthy" in class, but will also adequately praise you, so that you can already see progress at the end of the class. The whole thing with insider information about the ski area and skiing itself. Overall excellent teacher! Absolutely recommendable - regardless of the level!

Rolf was very professional and patient. He explained the technique of skiing in detail and was very encouraging. Thanks Rolf, it was a lot of fun. Karen

My goal was to drive the corners more consciously, emotionally and safely. During ski lessons I was shown how to put my skis "flat", support the rotation with my body weight and thus keep my shins in contact with the shoe.
The lessons exceeded my expectations. The various exercises generally gave me more feeling and self-confidence.
I can recommend it!

What should I wear for my lessons?
You should wear warm clothing suitable for winter sports. Other accessories such as gloves, a ski mask and sunglasses are strongly recommended.
When should I collect my equipment?
You must arrive at the first lesson with your equipment (skis and poles or snowboard, and boots). If you do not have your own equipment, make sure to allow enough time to collect it from the rental shop so as not to delay the start of the lesson. Some shops even offer the option of collecting equipment the day before your first day of hire.
Do I need to wear a helmet?
Wearing a helmet is compulsory for children in some countries, but it is strongly recommended for everyone, regardless of age.
Where can I buy a ski pass?
Unless otherwise stated, you must have your ski pass with you for the first lesson. You can usually buy one at the ski lift office or online. Discounted rates may be available for children or beginners, so check with your ski school to find out which pass is most suitable.
Do I need to book my lessons in advance?
Generally, it is advisable to book lessons as early as possible. This is especially important during school holidays, such as Christmas and February, when lessons can fill up quickly.
I'm a complete beginner, is this course right for me?
Yes, the lessons are suitable for all levels of experience, including complete beginners. The instructor adapts the content of the lesson to your personal needs and goals.
Who are the lessons for?
These lessons are specially designed for skiers over 50. They are also perfect for anyone who wants to get back into skiing after a few years away.
What will I learn?
You will learn to have better control of your skis with less effort. This will allow you to ski for longer, get tired less quickly and have more fun on the slopes.
How many people can be in a private lesson?
You can take the private lessons alone or share them with up to 3 friends or family members.
Can younger people (under 50) join the lessons?
Although the lessons are designed for skiers over 50, younger adults are also welcome. A 33-year-old participant, for example, was very satisfied with the course.
