Group lessons

Group Lessons are a great way to improve your skills in a fun, relaxed environment. You will be grouped with similar level skiers/boarders and children will be grouped with others of a similar age and ability. The lessons last 1 hour 50 minutes* and can be taken on any one of a range of slopes depending on your ability.

Note: If there are 4 or less people in a group lesson the lesson time will be reduced accordingly.

Group Lesson Price
$60 per person

* All pricing is in NZD and includes GST of 15%. Prices are accurate at the time of page update for the 2013 season. Products and/or prices may be subject to change without notice.
