Don’t worry, we all start somewhere when we learn to snowboard! If you’ve never snowboarded before, our qualified instructors are here to help you from the second you step onto the snow. At our snowboard beginner lessons, you’ll learn about ‘toe edge’ and ‘heel edge’ techniques, as well as how to control your speed, link your turns and move safely in a diagonal line across a real snow slope.
To see more information on things to know before you arrive, see our things you need to know section.

5 Hour Adult Snowboard Improver Day (5 Hours of tuition, with an hour break)
Our Snowboard Improver Day lesson is aimed at snowboarders who have completed the Beginner’s day course/Level 3 and can make turns from the top of the beginner slope, potentially lower main slope. The course will start on the Beginners slope then progress to main slope with the goal of developing confidence riding on the main slope. Focus will be on developing stronger steering skills to unlock steeper terrain and develop confidence.
Guests will learn to link turns with more rhythm and flow. They will start by consolidating basic turns on the beginner slope then progress to the lower part of the main slope. They will learn to make a standard turn by changing edge earlier in the turn and develop their edging skills to tackle the steeper terrain. They will also be introduced to riding from the top of the main slope.
