Our instructors focus on teaching children and teens the proper technique and instilling a love of snowboarding from the very first minute.
At the beginning, it’s important for beginners to get used to the snowboard. We pay attention to proper body position right from the start. After various introductory exercises for “one-foot riding” and “full-base riding,” students glide their first few meters on both the heel and toe edges. Building on this, students move on to “full-base to sliding,” “sliding while traversing,” and “sliding to full-base.”
Children and teenagers who can ski on blue runs learn their first tricks (waltz, wheelie) and soon also “switch” skiing. We also cover the basics for the snow park: speed check, fifty-fifty over a simple box, and jumps over small jumps. As the course progresses, we’ll improve riding technique (carving), practice slope tricks, and work on park elements.
Our courses fit in with your holiday, not the other way round! For all group courses, you can simply choose between half-day and full-day options – whichever suits your travel plans best.
Which option you choose also depends on your learning goals: we recommend a half-day course for a concise introduction, or a full-day course for maximum progress.
