LEVELS

Technical ability is only part of what decides your level of ski ability. Confidence in skiing is very important as well. We want to ensure that we find the right level for you and consequently we endeavor to speak to all our clients before booking ski or snowboard lessons. As a starting point the following guidelines should be useful:

Beginner: You've done heehaw (nothing) before apart from watch Ski Sunday on TV

Level 1: You have skied on snow before or done some taster sessions on a dry or indoor slope, but are not confident skiing a green run.

Level 2: You are confident skiing a green run, but the thought of skiing a blue run makes you shiver!

Level 3: You are fairly confident on blue runs and hope to ski a red run before the end of the week.

For more advanced ski lessons see our workshops for some ideas.

Additional notes: if think you are a level two or three, but you fit into one of the following categories, consider dropping yourself down a level.

You haven’t skied for a few years and your first lesson this holiday is going to be your first time back on snow;

The thought of a narrow or busy run puts you off your skiing.

You’ve suffered an injury during or since your last ski holiday and are worried about it.

Please get in touch if you are unsure of your level, give us a call or send us an e-mail and we can make sure you are skiing at the right level for you.
