1. Select Your Experience Level
We understand that skiing or boarding can be intimidating and this is what we are here for, to help ease your fears and to get you started down the right path.
In Beginner lessons you will develop the basics, learn how to turn and stop, gain confidence and polish your turns on various terrain.
Take your skiing or riding to the next level, turn it up and break through the plateau and master your turns on blue runs and be introduced to easy blacks.
In Intermediate lessons you will advance your turns for control on blue runs and develop skills to experience more of the mountain including some natural terrain features and easy blacks.
Thought you don’t need a lesson? – skiing or riding is so much more exciting when you challenge yourself under the skilled guidance of Perisher’s expert instructors. Explore off-piste terrain, manoeuvre jumps and bumps or tackle our park & pipe while experiencing individual coaching and feedback.
In Advanced Lessons you will enjoy a combination of technical coaching, demanding skiing/riding and local knowledge and learn tactics and techniques to help excel in all condition and terrain
