Learn to Ski with Us in Style
Learning to ski as an adult can be daunting. The ground feels far away, the snow is slippery under your skis, and mastering the snowplough can seem like it requires months of squat exercises. If this sounds like you, rest assured you’re not alone.
We know this and are proud offer our successful “Learn to Ski in Style” programme, the perfect introduction to skiing for adults. With excellent and patient instructors, this programme is taught in small groups of three to four like-minded individuals who are eager to learn with no children around, as they are enjoying their own ski programmes.
We design our programmes hassle-free, so our clients make use of our exclusive Ski Butler services to ensure they have the best ski equipment and ski passes waiting for them on arrival.
Each day starts with clients being picked up from their hotel in our Powder Byrne private shuttles and taken to the base of the slopes. The Resort Manager introduces clients to their instructor, who ensures all boots are properly fastened and skis are set up correctly according to each person’s height and weight. The group then heads to the slopes.
These wide, quiet, and gentle slopes are ideal for beginners. While the snow may feel slippery at first, the experienced instructor helps everyone get the hang of snow ploughing, gaining control of speed and direction. Our instructors provide subtle corrections and approachable exercises to improve technique. As the week progresses and the group’s skills improve, they move on to a rolling blue run area for a bit more challenge.
Skiing can be tiring and is a great workout for the legs, so regular breaks for hot drinks and glühwein are part of our learn in style routine. Each day, the best table at a top mountain restaurant is pre-booked for our group, offering a chance to relax, enjoy local cuisine, perhaps a glass or two of wine – whilst enjoying the best views in the mountains.
After lunch, the group continues to ski until around 15:30, when our Powder Byrne private shuttles return them to their hotel. We know our clients enjoy a well-earned spa treatment to ease tired muscles and relax before the evening dinner arrangements and in preparation for the next day’s skiing.
“Learn to Ski in Style” provides a welcoming, social, and enjoyable way to learn to ski. Share your skiing journey with others who are starting out, with no pressure to push yourself beyond your comfort zone.
