Why Should You Take Lessons?

By going to ski school or snowboard school during your holiday to Pas de la Casa, or anywhere else for that matter, it should help you enjoy your ski or snowboard holiday even more! Just some of the numerous benefits include the following . . .

  • Meet other people on holiday
  • Learn to use your equipment safely
  • Qualified and informative instructors to help you
  • Gain new skills
  • Develop your existing skills
  • Try out new techniques
  • Build up your confidence
  • Learn about the mountain
  • Discover other areas of the mountains
  • Have loads more fun!

Having lessons isn't just for beginner skiers and snowboarders! Even the most advanced skiers and riders still have lessons. Pas de la Casa has some excellent instructors, who are qualified to the highest international levels, with loads of experience to help you learn. There is also a more in depth course available, called "Top Class", which is made up of smaller groups and also benefits from video analysis.

Group Lessons v Private Lessons

Pas de la Casa offers two choices for lessons with positives and negatives to both. Although private lessons are more expensive hourly, you get the full attention of your instructor. Taking group lessons is cheaper, however you share your instructor with the rest of your group. With group lessons, at the start of the week you'll be split into groups according to your ability, and yes, snowboarders and skiers have separate lessons!

If you're travelling as a group you could combine the two - book an instructor to just look after your party for a few hours or perhaps the whole week meaning you get to snowboard or ski with your friends, plus the instructor is dedicated to the needs of your group!

So when you come to Pas de la Casa, deciding whether you want to take group ski school or private lessons is up to you and your personal circumstances, either way you will be sure to benefit greatly from the expert tuition and guidance.
