OBER MOUNTAIN SNOWSPORTS SCHOOL

Get the most out of your Ober Mountain winter experience by learning from our expert training professionals.

WHAT & HOW WE TEACH

We teach beginners through advanced skiers and snowboarders, emphasizing fun and safety first. We are members of the Professional Ski Instructors of America (PSIA) and the American Association of Snowboard Instructors (AASI).

You are taught the techniques of gliding, slowing down, turning and stopping, so you can capture the thrill and excitement of the sport while having fun.

FIRST TIME SKIERS/SNOWBOARDERS

A lesson* is mandatory for first time skiers and snowboarders for increased safety of themselves and others on the slopes.

*Only Ober Mountain’s Instructors are authorized to teach on Ober Mountain premises.

GROUP LESSON

The easiest and most economical way to get started! A group lesson will match you with other beginners, so that you can learn in a low-pressure environment. These lessons take you through the basics on our Ski School slope and allow you to practice using the Mighty Carpet surface lift.

PRIVATE LESSON*

A more personal approach, private lessons offer one-on-one training for beginners or for those who want to improve upon specific skills. Private lessons offer more flexibility, whether you would like to practice on the Ski School slope or take on more advanced slopes, learn about lift-riding and safety guidelines on the slopes.

*Private Lessons are NOT Available during Holiday Periods, because our entire staff of instructors is dedicated to the increased demand for Group Lessons.
