KIDS PRIVATE LESSON

A question we are often asked is “at what age can children start snowboarding?” We usually recommend around 4 years old, but it is not a question of age but rather of motivation, it depends above all on the enthusiasm your child has for this magical sport.

YES has always been very sensitive to children’s needs. Over the years, we have developed a specific teaching progression and started collaborating with rental shops that use premium equipment for young riders.

Individual lesson is particularly suitable for younger kids, for those who are just beginning to ride or for those who prefer to have a more intimate and personal relationship with the instructor.

KIDS GROUP LESSON

The group lesson is ideal for learning to snowboard in a team and making new friends!

In homogeneous groups according to age and level, children have fun and, above all, learn to love the mountains: the instructor guides them to discover the turns, the first jumps and, why not, some simple off-piste.

Snowboarding courses for children and teenagers are held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. during the Christmas holidays and throughout the month of February. The quality of teaching has always been one of our strong points, which is why groups consist of a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 8 children.

For more information and prices, please write us an email stating the period and the number of consecutive days you would like your child to ride.

CHOOSE WHERE TO MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR

Our meeting point is at the beginning of the Jolly Carpet in Sestriere but, on request and subject to approval by the secretary’s office, you can choose to meet your instructor at the departure station of the Fraiteve gondola in front of the Olympic Village, in Borgata or in Pragelato.

Group lessons always begin and end near the Jolly Carpet.

DO YOU NEED THE EQUIPMENT?

Thanks to our collaboration with Archimede and Ski Rent Sestriere we can offer you a tailor-made “lesson + hire” package. When booking, tell us what you need and we will help you.
