Private Lessons

All mountains - Skiing & Snowboarding, All Levels

PRIVATE LESSONS 
CREATE YOUR PERFECT DAY! 

We have over 1,200 pros across four mountains dedicated to giving you the most amazing experience possible. No matter your age or ability level, we can custom-tailor the appropriate instruction for you, whether you’ve never set foot on snow before, or if you just want a few pointers to improve upon. Private lessons can have up to five participants, so you can form your own fun group.

- Customize your day – challenge yourself in the park & pipe in the morning and race NASTAR in the afternoon or work on bumps and carving arcs on groomers – you call the shots
- Personalized coaching, teaching and guiding to fit your needs and expectations
- Priority lift access (especially helpful during the busy holiday seasons)
- Flexible meeting times and locations
- Overnight ski/snowboard storage and mountain transfers
- Request the Pro of your choice or let us match your needs with one of our talented Pros!
- Buttermilk and Snowmass welcome all ages and levels; ski/snowboard/telemark/park & pipe 
- Aspen Mountain and Highlands skiers/riders must be 5 years old and an intermediate level (strong level 5).

Rentals: If renting equipment please allow a minimum of one hour to get fitted on your first day, or if your schedule allows, pickup your rentals the evening before your first day on the slopes.  Four Mountain Sports rental shops are located at nine locations throughout the bases of our four mountains and include the Treehouse Kids’ Adventure Center at Snowmass as well as the Panda house at Buttermilk. 

Helmets: Helmets are REQUIRED for children ages 17 and under participating in Ski & Snowboard Schools programs.  Helmets are also required for all participants, regardless of age, when participating in Terrain Park & Pipe lessons.  While helmets may reduce the severity of a head injury, the best way to avoid accidents is to know and abide by the skier/rider responsibility code.
