When you get to the school, the instructors will quiz you or your child to see if you have skied or snowboarded before and what type of runs you have been on.
They will make sure everyone is in the right class according to ability. Class levels range from "1st Timers" through Advanced Black Diamond classes. -
We prefer that the parents go off and have their own fun while their kids are in lessons. This way your children are not distracted from learning.
The little ones tend to behave differently when they see their parents.It would be okay to go watch them toward the very end of the lesson, but don't interfere with the lesson. -
