Looking for private tuition?
Private lessons let you choose your own start time and are tailored entirely to you and your party of up to six people. See the dedicated Pas de la Casa private lessons page for pricing and to enquire.
Ability Levels
Choosing the right level.
Try to grade yourself before your first lesson — the instructors will move you to a suitable group if needed.
There are four ability levels used across the Grandvalira ski school. Don't worry if you're not 100% sure — at the start of the week the school splits learners into groups according to ability, so you'll end up where you should be. At the end of the week there's the chance to enter a timed race: adults get a certificate, children get a medal and a certificate.
Beginners
Never skied or snowboarded before
Level 1
(Green/Blue): Able to turn right & left and use a drag lift
Level 2
(Blue/Red): Confident on all blue runs
Level 3

Good to know
Getting the most from your lessons.
A few extra things worth knowing before you book lessons in Pas de la Casa.
Why take lessons in Pas de la Casa?
Ski and snowboard lessons help you enjoy your holiday all the more, and they're not just for beginners; even advanced skiers and riders keep taking them. Benefits include learning to use equipment safely, developing your skills, discovering more of the 210km area and having more fun. Pas de la Casa also offers a more in-depth "Top Class" course, made up of smaller groups with video analysis.
Group vs private lessons
Both options have their merits. Private lessons cost more per hour but give you the instructor's full attention; group lessons are cheaper but you share the instructor with others of similar ability. Travelling as a group? Book an instructor just for your party for a few hours or the whole week. Ski with your friends while getting dedicated tuition.
Best-value booking tip
You'll get the best savings by booking group lessons as part of a full package with your Grandvalira lift pass and ski or snowboard hire, the most economical and convenient way to organise your ski extras. See the special offers page.
