Private snowboard lessons for all levels in Gstaad

Your snowboard instructor builds on your skills. Depending on your level, he practices different abilities and techniques with you. Beginners learn to maintain balance. After that, your instructor practices sliding with you to gain initial success on flat terrain. Once the basics are in place, you will start to learn your first turns and safely control your speed on easy blue slopes. With growing experience, your technique becomes more precise, enabling you to master and ride red slopes cleanly.

This course is aimed at snowboarders of all levels:

Level 1: Complete Beginner: No prior knowledge required – everyone has to start somewhere. With patience and the right guidance, you will learn the basics of snowboarding.

Level 2: Advanced Beginner (1): You master the magic carpet and the drag lift and can somewhat control your speed and direction on practice slopes.

Level 3: Advanced Beginner (2): Familiar with all lifts on practice and easy slopes, you can confidently make turns and adjust your speed in any situation.

Level 4: Intermediate: Blue slopes are no problem for you. You turn fluidly and are confident on your heel and toe edges as a snowboarder.

Level 5: Advanced Intermediate: You feel comfortable on red slopes in good conditions. Challenges like ice, moguls, or deep snow are an exciting next step for you.

Level 6: Advanced: You confidently master red slopes, regardless of conditions, and can handle most black runs. You want to further develop your technique in carving, off-piste, or on moguls.

Level 7: Expert: You handle black runs and challenging routes with ease. You work on your speed and technique in carving, in moguls or in deep snow, and refine jumps and tricks in the freestyle park.
