Snowboard group lessons for kids

A private ski or snowboard course is worthwhile if you want to make rapid progress, hone special techniques or enjoy maximum flexibility. A group course, on the other hand, is fun in a group, motivates you to learn together and is a more cost-effective option for anyone who likes to make progress in a group. No matter which option you choose - your ideal learning experience awaits you on the slopes with our Zermatt ski instructors!

Whether you're a complete beginner, returning skier or experienced piste expert - ski and snowboard lessons help everyone! Beginners benefit from a solid foundation in technique and greater safety on the slopes. Returning skiers quickly regain their confidence, while advanced skiers can hone their technique - be it carving, deep-snow skiing or freestyle. With your Zermatt ski instructor, you will make exactly the progress that suits your ability - for maximum fun and success in the snow!

In addition to your equipment (see below), you will need suitable winter clothing, sunglasses or ski goggles and sun protection.
Whether on two boards or one - the right equipment is the key to a safe and fun experience on the slopes. Here are the most important things you need:

• Skis or snowboard - tailored to your ability and riding style
• Ski boots or snowboard boots
• Ski poles (only for skiers)
• helmet
• Gloves & hat or balaclava
• Back protector (recommended)

If you don't have your own equipment, you can hire everything locally in a sports store in Zermatt!

With us, little snow adventurers start their skiing fun from the age of 4! For the youngest (4-6 years) there is the Snowli Kids Village on the Riffelberg, where they can playfully make their first turns in the snow. From the age of 6, things really get going - in our group courses for 6-14 year olds, children and teenagers learn at their own pace and at different levels how to conquer the slopes safely and with lots of fun.

Snowboard group lessons only start from the age of 6.
