Private snowboard lessons
Your lessons. Your way.
Private snowboard lessons are the quickest way to improve skills on the snow for both adults and children; improve at your own pace with a dedicated and carefully chosen ES instructor who will tailor your time together so that you learn in a way that exactly suits you.
Our instructors are known for their adaptability; we appreciate everyone enjoys different things and we want you to have your own extraordinary experience on the snow.
Private snowboard lessons with European Snowsport
All our instructors speak English and love to teach, and are happy to meet you the afternoon before the lessons start to help plan the week. Snowboard lessons start wherever you’d like; the instructor can come to your accommodation, rental shop, ski lift, cafe, or wherever you prefer, on the first morning. The timings of full-day snowboard lessons are dictated by you; all ES instructors know the mountain intimately and will guide you to the best places to ride, eat and explore.
There is no extra charge for adding family or friends to your private snowboard lessons, so the group size can vary at different times according to your needs.
Beginners and children greatly benefit from private lessons, as they learn the important fundamental aspects of snowboarding at their own pace, creating a solid foundation from which to grow into a strong and confident boarder.
We’ll add extra value where it matters so you can get the very best snowboard lessons with the highest level of service for your private experience. Our instructors all speak excellent English and, as well as improving your snowboarding, they’ll know the important information you need like which lifts are open, where to avoid the queues, the weather outlook and crucially, who serves the best coffee.
“I could feel that the teacher was doing it from the heart and with passion, and of course this
is what made it perfect. Would recommend 100%!”
To snowboard your best, you need to be your best and we’ll take you up a level. When you choose ES, our instructors will ultimately unlock your true potential, expand your confidence and harness the best of your brilliant ability.
And when you reach new heights, they’ll be right beside you.

One on one
There is no extra charge for adding family or friends to your private snowboard lessons, so the group size can vary at different times according to your needs.
Often families or groups of friends hire several private instructors to look after parties including mixed abilities and requirements. If your party requires more than one instructor, we will appoint a lead instructor to coordinate your needs prior to arrival.
Off-piste snowboard lessons
Beautiful. Still. Away from it all.
Snowboarding off-piste is a bit like stepping off the world as you know it. It makes for a magical memory; creating elegant, smooth turns in soft, untouched powder. And it stays with you. The exhilarating freedom of floating down the mountain with the fresh air in your lungs, the float in the turns, the serenity, the peace. The connection with the mountain and nature. The disconnect from people and hustle.
But it’s not as simple as choosing to take the wrong turn towards that untouched, cushiony blanket you see beyond the marked trails, and leaping blindly into it. Tempting as that might be.
Knowing how to find that fresh snow, where the powder is safe and where it isn’t, takes years of experience and specialist training.
“[Our instructor] knew the mountains like the back of his hand”
Conditions change quickly and it’s essential to find an instructor who is top qualified, experienced in the resort, and an expert in off piste snowboard lessons.
If you understand the risks involved and are an advanced technical snowboarder and looking for a new, unique level of challenge, we can create a tailored and exclusive experience for you, which makes bringing you back safely a priority.
Our ES off-piste snowboard instructors have extensive local knowledge and expertise which allows them to identify the best spots in the picturesque playground for you to enjoy. For a deeper appreciation of what the mountains can offer they’ll take you on a safe journey through uncharted territory.
