If you are at The Snow Centre Level 1-4, all or part of your Private Lesson will take place on the Trainer Slope.
If you’ve taken the first step with snowboarding before and are now able to side slip on both heel and toe edges, with a little help, then Level 2 is for you.

Adult Freestyle Coaching Sessions
If you’re confident on the Main Slope and eager to move onto something more challenging, Freestyle Academy is a great place to start. The 2 hour coaching sessions are available on Thursday evenings 8pm – 10pm.
For those new to freestyle, join us on our Pathway to Freestyle coaching sessions. Or for those that have already tried a few tricks on our features, head to our Freestyle Development sessions.
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 advance at your own pace, whether you feel like learning quickly or would rather build up confidence gradually.
If you are ready to advance onto Freestyle, all or part of your Private Lesson will take place on the Main Slope, on a Thursday or Friday evening.

“Having never been skiing before, I booked in for the full-day introductory course. The instructor Richard was extremely patient and allowed me to get to grips with the basics at my own pace. The Snow Centre is a very impressive facility, with the learning slope separate from the main slope so you don't feel under pressure if you are a beginner. Overall I really enjoyed it and would definitely go back.”
“Had a 2 hour adult woman’s group with Alan who is amazing, very patient And explains things in such a simple way you can progress with ease he paid attention to everyone in the class which was lovely ...!!”
“Thank you Julie for your kind hearted gesture this morning of buying a coffee for all NHS workers - it was definitely what I needed ready to face a busy shift! The coffee was lovely - as were you, and I will definitely pop in more often, as it is such a convenient place for a quick pick me up! Thank you!!”
“Huge thanks to Craig,or Carl, sorry can't remember which who was amazing loading sit skis yesterday. Also Beeman with his ever helpful how are you, can I help greetings. Snow really good as well.”
