In the programme

Develop at your own pace and learn with a qualified instructor in a friendly atmosphere!

The snowboard group Rookie level is aimed at complete beginners or for those who have practiced for a few hours, adults and children from 8 years old.

The goal for the week is to independently descend easy slopes.

You will learn to :

  • Be autonomous with the snowboard : to strap in and out of the bindings, to get up from a seated position
  • Manoeuvre the board on the flat in a straight line with one-foot strapped in
  • Use chair lifts alone
  • Descend frontside and backside using a "falling leaf"
  • Learn front and backside turns on blue slopes
  • Be safe on the slopes (knowing how to stop)

Let yourself be tempted by snowboarding....discover a new sliding sensation!

Please note that from the start of April all beginner snowboard groups are afternoons only

To remember

  • We recommend that you be in good physical condition to make the most of this activity

Our method

  • Instructors will harmonise groups at the start of the week and possibly change participants groups during the course of the week

  • All our instructors speak fluent English

  • A lift pass is not required the first day of lesson. We start with the free slopes, your instructor will advise you at the end of the lesson if you will require a lift pass for the rest of the week.
