What is the earliest age for ski or Snowboard lessons?
Our ski lessons are available for children aged 4+ years and Snowboard children aged 7+.years. Our kids’ lessons are the perfect way to introduce your kids to the slopes!
Can you learn to ski or snowboard without lessons?
Lessons are always the best way to get started, we wouldn’t advise skiing or snowboarding without lessons, to help avoid injury. Our kids lessons are the perfect way to get your kids started.
