Private Snowboard Lessons for family

Why choose a private family snowboard lesson?

• Share the experience: Enjoy snowboarding together on the same slopes
• Adaptive teaching: Each session is shaped around your family’s goals and comfort
• Hands-on learning: Progress through movement, not long explanations
• Instant feedback: Clear, simple tips — with optional on-slope video analysis
• Perfect for mixed levels: Everyone rides safely at their own rhythm

What your family can expect

Personal advice & choosing the right area
From the very first contact, we guide you to the best mountain for your ability and goals.
Depending on snow and conditions, your instructor might suggest Jakobshorn, Parsenn, Rinerhorn, Pischa, or Madrisa — each offering ideal terrain for family riders.

Equipment & rentals
Need snowboards or helmets? No problem — we can organize rentals for you and ensure every setup fits perfectly.

Flexible meeting points
Meet your instructor wherever it suits you best:
at your hotel, a base station (e.g. Parsennbahn Davos Dorf, Jakobshornbahn Davos Platz, Gotschnabahn Klosters), or directly on the mountain.

Kick-off & riding goals
We start the day by defining goals and checking your technique on easy slopes.
If your family members have different levels, your instructor structures the lesson so everyone stays challenged and engaged — kids, teens, and adults alike.

Coaching that builds confidence
Throughout the day, you’ll get short, focused corrections and practical drills.
Each family member receives personalized feedback and encouragement to progress naturally — and most importantly, to enjoy every ride.

Lunch with a view
Your instructor organizes a reservation at a family-friendly mountain hut or panoramic restaurant, so you can relax and recharge together.

Afternoon fun & wrap-up
In the afternoon, you put your new skills to the test on different terrain or snow conditions.
The lesson ends with a friendly debrief and recommendations for your next snowboard adventures in Davos Klosters.
