For those starting out in the sport, or those looking to improve their technique, then getting a lesson is the best way to move forward.
One of the greatest source of misery on the slopes is not being able to do it, and the frustration can be vented on parents, partners and friends.
Much of this can be alleviated with a couple of lessons.
Kid’s benefit as they are learning with their own level and age group, and have fun at the same time. Adults, who are often slower to pick up the sport, can get ahead more quickly the the tuition of an expert instructor.
For those of more experienced ability wanting to improve their ability, or try something new, will also benefit from a few hours of coaching.
We strongly recommend learning from professionals with the experience and qualifications to teach proper technique. Learning from friends or family is always going to be a source of conflict that is easily avoided.
