Understand the Lingo

Individualized lessons are our most common lesson type and provide 1:1 technical instruction with a lead and assistant instructor.

A private lesson ensures the same lead instructor for individualized technical instruction for the entirety of a participant’s lessons. 

A ski buddy is not a ski lesson. Ski buddies are trained ambassadors to show independent participants around the mountain with a focus on proper terrain choice.
