From decades of teaching skiing and riding, the pros of the Ski &
Snowboard Schools of Aspen know that when you ski/ride better you have
more fun. As vacation time becomes more and more precious, making the
most of the on-mountain adventure is the first priority.
In addition to renowned adult programs, there are also award-winning
programs for children and teens offered at one of the only
state-licensed childcare facilities at a winter resort. Kids enjoy
race days, apres-sport parties, on-slope mascots, forts, special
kids-only trails and much more.
Some program highlights include:
Snowmass
Adrenaline Sessions Intensive half-day clinics for advanced and expert
skiers and riders held every Wednesday of the season. These fast-paced
clinics help guests thrive in bumps, powder, steeps, crud, terrain
parks and pipes utilizing all the terrain Snowmass has to
offer.
