In private snowboard lessons in Zermatt, you or your child take centre stage - individually supervised at every level. Whether first attempts at sliding or targeted improvement of technique in the snowpark: our experienced snowboard instructors adapt the speed, exercises and methodology precisely to the abilities and goals of the participants.
Children benefit from a playful, safe approach with age-appropriate learning methods and our highly trained children's snowboard instructors. Adults experience professional coaching and personal support to make efficient progress - from getting started to carving on the black piste.
With a private snowboard instructor in Zermatt, you will learn faster, safer and with more fun than in any group. In our snowboard school, snowboarding becomes an experience - for children, adults or together as a family.
Program
Your ski instructor will pick you up at your accommodation or meet you at the ski resort - depending on the offer you have booked. After a brief chat about your goals and expectations, you'll head straight out onto the slopes. The lesson is structured flexibly and adapted according to progress and conditions. The lesson ends at a mutually agreed location - in the ski area, in the valley or at your accommodation.
The Matterhorn Experience
A day on your board, your rhythm, your ride. Your snowboard instructor meets you whenever and wherever you like and takes you to the best runs, sunny spots and freeride lines between Zermatt and Cervinia.
We recommend 6 hours to get the full experience – from first turns to flowy descents and a relaxed mountain lunch. If you want to ride until the last lift, we’ll be with you all the way. For a day you’ll never forget.
5h Private Lesson
Start your snowboarding adventure at 8:30 a.m. and enjoy 5 hours of coaching until 1:30 p.m. Prefer a later start? Just add your preferred time in the notes. The meeting point is flexible – at your hotel, the base station or up on the slopes.
Ideal for improving your technique, gaining confidence and discovering the best lines with your ZERMATTERS guide.
Meeting points
Private lessons with pick-up
"The Matterhorn Experience", as well as the 5-hour, 3-hour and 2.5-hour morning lessons, can be booked with pick-up. Your instructor will collect you from your accommodation, and the lesson time starts upon pick-up.
Private lesson without pick-up
You can also meet your instructor directly on the mountain and make full use of your time on the slopes.
Private or group lessons - which suits me better?
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!
Who are ski and snowboard lessons suitable for?
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!
What should I bring to ski or snowboard lessons?
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!
From what age can children take ski lessons at ZERMATTERS?
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.
What happens if I have to cancel lessons at short notice?
Our cancellation conditions apply. In many cases it is possible to cancel free of charge up to a certain point before the start of the course. We recommend that you check the exact conditions at the time of booking or take out travel cancellation insurance.
