Can my family or friends join
me?
Yes, in fact this is frequently the
case. Most other ski areas charge for extra people in private
lessons. At Telluride Ski and Snowboard School we do not charge
for extra students. However, keep in mind that guests of
different ability levels or goals and objectives may not be able to ride
on the same runs. It would be inappropriate to mix a first timer
with an intermediate level park rider. While I can give the
intermediate skills to work on while on the beginner run while teaching
the beginner, the intermediate really should be applying their skills in
the terrain park. The key to success with a multiple person
lesson is that the guests are content to ride the same runs at similar
speeds. I often split the lesson hours among the different levels
of guests throughout the day - maybe the beginner in the morning and the
expert in the afternoon. I can even teach snowboarding in the
morning and downhill skiing in the afternoon if that's needed for your
situation.
I
snowboard but my partner skis.
Can you teach us both?
Yes. I am a dual discipline
certified snowboard and ski instructor. You may want me to get
your partner started on skis in the morning while you warm up on your
snowboard.
Then during lunch I change into snowboard boots and snowboard with you after lunch.
This way you can book a full day lesson with one instructor instead of
two instructors for half days and save a few bucks if this works for
your scheduling. Though I have worked with snowboarders and
skiers simultaneously while I'm on one type of equipment it is
difficult to perform effective demonstrations of skill movements.
It only takes me about 10 minutes to change gear so splitting the lesson
is really best.
