Have you been skiing or boarding for a while and are feeling confident in your abilities, but feel there may be a gap in your skills, or want to learn new techniques to tackle various terrain? It could be time to consider taking one of our advanced lessons.
Why take lessons as an intermediate?
There’s a common misconception that once you’re no longer a beginner, you don’t need lessons anymore. We simply don’t agree with that! Lessons are important at any skill level, as you can never stop learning new skills on the slopes.
Taking intermediate or advanced lessons offers numerous benefits, including improving your skill set, mastering advanced techniques and confidently navigating more challenging slopes. Understanding proper handling of your equipment for more advanced terrain and safety protocols to reduce the risk of injury are also covered.
Lessons also help you to notice bad habits you’ve picked up on, or potential tweaks you can make in your technique to have a much better experience on the slopes. Overcoming fear and achieving a sense of accomplishment are also a reward of taking lessons, so if you want to elevate your abilities and embrace the thrill of the slopes, an intermediate or advanced lesson is worth considering!
Lesson Types for Intermediates & Above
Did you know we offer ‘Black’ grading level in our Group Adult Lessons for both skiing and boarding? Joining group lessons at this level can foster camaraderie and motivation, all while learning from experienced instructors who provide valuable insights. These lessons are offered daily from 10am at the Snowsports Meeting Area.
Looking for something more personalised? Private Lessons are the perfect way to gain one-on-one evaluation of your technique and build confidence in the areas you’re seeking. With a choice of eight different lesson options to suit your needs, there’s so much to gain from private lessons. During peak periods we recommend booking in advance to secure a spot.
With personalised guidance, instructors can help you refine specific areas for improvement, enabling you to progress faster to ensure a ski and boarding experience that’s more enjoyable as you can explore a wider range of trails.
Wanting to learn a completely new terrain altogether? We now offer Park Sessions on selected Thursdays throughout the season. If you have a goal of wanting to confidently ride the park, book yourself into one of our park-specific lessons to progress your skiing and boarding with a whole new range of tricks.
We’re now over halfway through the season, so book in your lessons before time runs out! Epic Australia Pass holders also receive 20% off group and private lessons when booked online and in advance. It’s the best value way to build your skills this winter!
