BLUE ZONE
Junior Blue, Level 3 & 4
Ideal for children from 7 years and up with 2 to 4 weeks of skiing experience. As parents, you will know all kids are different, so their instructor will need to get to know them before they plan the week to meet their learning needs. Usually kids at this level work on learning parallel turns, rounding the shape of their turns. Lots of fun and confidence building.

Max 8 kids per group
RED ZONE
Junior Red, Level 5 & 6
This is for kids that want to get around the mountain. 8 years and up and can handle a red run in good conditions. What they need at this stage is to be adaptable with the shape of their turns to match the slopes. They will improve their skill with the skis, by learning to carve & skid. Red groups improve their technique on the move with lots of fun activities.
5 x 3 hrs £345.
Max 8 kids per group
BLACK ZONE
All Mountain, Level 7 & 8
This is not a course for the faint of heart. Confident kids and teenagers who can ski a black and want to do it better. Bumps, jumps, steeps, race, speed and off piste, what more can we say. A very experienced instructor will make a lesson feel like an adventure. We will give them the skills to do the job and they get to have a go at everything.
