Private Freestyle Lessons
Sometimes all we need to do to finally master that trick, land that jump, and butter across the boxes is the help of a trained Freestyle Instructor. Our 1:1 Private Freestyle Lessons allow you to advance at your own pace, whether you feel like learning quickly or would rather build up confidence gradually. COMING SOON
At The Snow Centre we believe in Snowsports FOR ALL and recognise the importance of participation, building self-confidence, exploring new experiences and feeling a sense of achievement. If you have any additional needs that you feel may be a barrier to learning a snowsport, please call us and speak to one of the team. We will be able to find the right pathway to help you unlock learning and participation potential.
Our Team consists of some of the best and most experienced snowsports instructors. We are also privileged to work with the top specialist organisations dealing with various additional needs while learning Snowsports.
Specialist organisations:
Adult Group Ski Lessons usually have a maximum of 10 adults per instructor, however in September & October 2020 we have reduced the maximum capacity to 5 to ensure we can adhere to social distancing guidelines. Private Lessons are available for between 1 and 5 people per instructor.
“Love it here. Great slope and the staff are really friendly. Also love the Alpine bar and viewing area. So pleased to have it back.”
“Incredible welcome and help from the staff! First trip back since before lockdown and it was well worthwhile. Lovely welcome and talk through the new set up. Then my son had an issue with his own kit and the guys couldn’t have been more helpful - very kind and very knowledgeable. The snow as good as ever and the cafe a good finish to a great time. Thank you all!”
“The Hemel ski centre has a great atmosphere, the instructors are friendly and helpful, it’s just an all round really well run place”
“Had a great time at the snow centre, went once before lockdown and was good to be back. I had a one on one lesson which was good but went too quickly. I’ll try to book two lessons on the same day so I can keep up with progress. It was all well managed and seemed to have good Covid measures in place.”
