Main information
What to expect
Snowboarding guarantees a lot of fun and pleasure on the slopes thanks to completely new and different thrills from skiing. By taking one of our private snowboarding lessons, you are sure to enjoy the slopes even more, and come away from your lesson more confident and comfortable on your board.
In Villars, there are plenty of opportunities to hone your snowboarding skills and your instructor will be happy to guide you around the resort. Beginners will spin their first turns on the green and blue slopes, the more experienced can put their skills to the test in the snow park or on the red and black slopes of the resort. Simple turns, switch or freestyle will no longer hold any secrets for you.
You can come with 3 other riding companions, our instructors welcome up to 4 people per private lesson. We offer sessions by the hour or by the day, depending on your needs and availability. It's up to you to decide!

Yes! Simon was awesome. We had only snowboarded once before. We didn't realize how much our previous instructor (outside this ski/snowboard school) didn't teach us. Immediately after meeting with Simon for 2 hours, we picked it right up and could go down our first green slope with ease. The location was great as well. A few others were learning as well, but it wasn't packed, so we were able to learn in peace. We'll for sure be heading back to Villars and hope to get Simon as our snowboard instructor again!

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.
