Description of service

For this price I got a 2-hour private ski lesson on a beginners slope. I was taught how to properly put on and take off my skis, the basic moves/poses of skiing, how to stop, how to fall, how to walk with skis on, etc. I skied down some starter hills too, with the teacher beside me and all around me, coaching me and explaining what I was doing right and wrong. I had one coach and it was all one-on-one. I was the only student.


Review of Service

This was fun and a bit stressful. I kept falling down, but was told that is normal. When the two hours were up, I did feel like I had gotten my money's worth and learned quite a bit. I did not feel like I could ski alone yet and will definitely take another lesson. I would also recommend this instructor as she was really friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and encouraging.


Tips

Put a pillow under your snowsuit if there is room, so that you have something soft to land on as you are going to fall! hahaha Just kidding. Seriously, if its your first time, be prepared. Its going to be fun and you are going to learn a lot, but it may be painful. I was really sore the next day but I would do it again in a heartbeat!
