Lesson
The lesson includes: the reception, the warming-up, the ski session, the break with a snack and the return to the parents. Teaching is adapted to the children's age and level.
Equipment
No ski poles needed ! Learning skiing starts with a balancing exercise. Children must put their weight on their legs, thus poles are not necessary at this point. Regular skis are necessary because of their safety bindings.
The wearing of a helmet is recommended. Click on the button "Details" to see all the other tips about the equipment
