Youth Lessons

From first turns to new terrain

Whether your child is clicking into skis for the first time or ready to explore more of the mountain, our youth lessons are built around their age and ability. Kids learn alongside others at their level, guided by instructors from our award-winning Ski and Ride School who know how to keep the day fun, safe, and full of progress. For families looking for one-on-one coaching or a full season of skill-building, private lessons and multi-week programs are available too.

Group Lessons for Kids

Some of the best days on the mountain happen with friends. Our youth group lessons keep class sizes small and group kids by age and ability, so every child gets the attention they need while learning with others at their level.

Full-day lessons include lunch with their group, and every lesson includes hot cocoa and snacks to keep the energy up between runs.

Mini Cub Private

Ages 3-4 | One Hour

A first lesson is a big moment, and our Mini Cub Private is designed to make it a good one. Your child gets an hour of one-on-one instruction from a dedicated instructor in our award-winning Ski and Ride School, who tailors every minute to their needs, energy, and comfort level.

It’s an easy way to introduce little ones to skiing or snowboarding at their own pace, building skills and confidence in a fun, safe setting. Lessons are offered in the morning or afternoon, so you can plan around naps, snacks, and the rest of your day.

Ski as a Family

Spend the day exploring the mountain together. With a Family Private, your instructor guides the whole group to the terrain you want to ski, helping everyone build control and confidence along the way. It’s a great way for kids and adults of different abilities to share the day and make memories on the mountain.

Family Privates are available for up to five people, including up to two children ages 6 and under.

Brand New to the Mountain?

For kids ages 4 and up who are brand new to skiing or snowboarding, Learn & Earn turns a first winter into something bigger. Group lessons, season-long rentals, and a Premier Season Pass give them a full season to go from first turns to exploring the mountain with confidence. If they love it, they can keep progressing for up to three seasons, with new perks, gear, and learning opportunities each year that set them up to keep skiing and riding long after the program ends.
