Although 4 is generally considered the starting age for skiing, we recommend age 5 for effective learning. This may vary depending on your child’s physical development and previous sports training.
In our kids’ lessons, our instructors first help children build confidence and balance, then teach the basic stance, gliding and stopping through games. On average, 6–8 hours of instruction is enough to get started in skiing and snowboarding; during this time, your child learns to ski safely on gentle, easy slopes.
You can rent skis, boots, helmets and clothing in children’s sizes from our Ski Rental Center.
