10 days course

Day 1: Bunny slopes. Our driver will meet you at the hotel at 9:45 where he will bring you to our Global Ski Shop and provide you with the ski gear. The driver will drop you at Bunny Ski slopes. You will have 2 hours of ski theory classes and your practicals will begin at 12:00 pm. Our instructor will teach you to balance and control. The class will end at 4:00 pm and the driver will drop you back to your hotel.

Note: You cannot use the ski lift on the first day. 

Day 2: Classes will begin at 9:45 am. There will be no Theory classes. The instructor will teach you basic snowplough turns aka “Pizza” or “V” from the top of the slope. Afternoon, you will be taught to use ski lifts. Every day your class will end at 4:00 pm and the driver will drop you back to your hotel.

Day 3: The instructor will focus on your speed, turns, control and check your use of the ski lift.

Day 4: Intermediate slopes. You will be shifted to intermediate slopes which are steeper and longer. The instructor will focus on your body positioning and parallel turns (where you bring your legs parallel to each other without much spacing between the two and ski down).

Day 5: First Phase Gondola. After mustering up enough confidence and skill, on day 5, you will ski from First Phase Gondola. The track is 4 km long and much steeper than the bunny and intermediate slopes. The instructor will focus on your speed, body positioning, and control on steeper slopes.

Day 6: Same as day 5

Day 7: Same as day 5

Day 8: Same as day 5 (these require more days of practice since the slopes are steeper and more difficult to descend)

Day 9: Our instructor will teach you carving on your skis. Carving on skis requires one to use their upper body to make small turns while also gliding down. Carving doesn’t require you to make bigger turns like that of parallel turns. Don’t worry about the terms, you will understand the difference once you are on the slopes and applying the techniques practically.

Carving on skis will enable you to prepare for competitions such as slalom, giant slalom, and super giant slalom where one skis between poles or gates.

Day 10: Chair-lift. On day 10, the final day, you will ski from chair-lift which is 3400 meters above sea level. The slopes are angled 25-30 degrees, commonly known as blue runs. These are off-piste slopes which means the slopes are not beaten and groomed.
