Your first ski or snowboard trip should be one that you’d never forget – not because you were transported down the slope in a toboggan by ski patrol or because you struggled so much to get it right that you never want to go back. Your first experience should be exhilarating, satisfying and fun and should be the spark that ignites a lifelong passion for snow sports. This is exactly what our aim is at Snow Adventure with our Zero To Hero learn to ski courses and learn to snowboard courses.
The best way to learn to ski or snowboard is learning the right stuff from the very beginning. What would be the use of learning poor ski or snowboard technique and later have to work much harder to try and change already established motor patterns. Remember, you are virtually a blank slate. You are not improving your skiing or snowboarding. You are learning it for the first time. Once you’ve established some motor patterns they will tend to stay with you, whether they are appropriate or not.
Snow Adventure has designed a learn to ski course and learn to snowboard course at Big White Ski Resort that will enable you to learn proper technique right from the word go, will accelerate the learning process and get you skiing or snowboarding the rest of the mountain within the first week. We acknowledge that people learn at different rates, have different levels of fitness and confidence as well as different goals. We take all of this into consideration and work with you in small groups to achieve your individual goals.
You will learn to ski or snowboard in small groups of 6 or less with a highly experienced, internationally certified ski or snowboard instructor for 4 hours per day Monday to Friday and with a midweek break. We use video analysis to analyze your skiing or snowboarding with you. This is a very valuable and effective tool to help you learn much faster than normal. Once you can confidently stop, control your speed and turn in the beginner learning area (typically day 1) we take you to the next level. By as quickly as day 2 or 3 you could be going up the big chairlifts to the green runs at the top of the mountain where you will further improve your skiing or snowboarding together with your ski or snowboard instructor.
The Zero To Hero learn to ski courses and learn to snowboard courses are designed to enable you to experience more of the mountain on your first ski or snowboard trip and to set you up for _ ski and snowboard success_.
After every day’s skiing or snowboarding you have the option to attend an après ski event in Big White Ski Resort Village. Big White Ski Resort also has lots of additional activities available to you. Among other activities there is tubing, snow shoeing, horse sleigh rides and ice skating.
We hope that you will join us on a Zero To Hero learn to ski course or learn to snowboard course in Big White Ski Resort during the 2008/2009 season!
