Take your skiing or snowboarding to the next level by taking a Private Lesson! We can work with you on basic beginner skills, linking turns on steeper terrain, carving, freestyle/terrain park skills, etc. Enjoy this lesson in a private 1 on 1 ratio format, or create a group of similarly aged and skilled friends or family for a group lesson (it is strongly recommended that children ages 4-8 have their own individual instructor).

The Adult Lesson Series is a great program for skiers and snowboarders who are looking to improve and advance their skills on the snow! These lessons cover a wide range of topics for both skiing and snowboarding. You can pick and choose which lesson (or lessons) you would like to attend, as long as you meet the prerequisite for any particular lesson.
