Slope skiing is about so much more than just preparing
for an overseas ski trip. Slope skiing is a fun activity in its
own right and is also an excellent way to keep fit. Our expert instructors
can teach all abilities from the complete novice to the more proficient.
We guarantee you will find learning to ski a highly rewarding experience.

a good way to gain confidence if you are unsure of your ability
or simply to refresh your skills if you have not skied for a while.
A great deal can be covered in a one hour lesson, making a session
great value for money. (For parties of 5 or more group tuition is
available.)
