LESSONS- BOOK ONLINE IN ADVANCE

KINDERSKI / KINDERBOARD (Ages 3-6)

Our Kinder program is an ideal introduction to snow sports. Kinder lessons are geared specifically for kids ages 3-6 and keep small student to instructor ratios. Instructors focus on games, imagination and teaching techniques to help your child gain confidence, develop their abilities and build independence on the slopes. Kinderski/Kinderboard is available daily. Kinder lessons are two hours long. The package includes lesson, rental and ticket if needed. There is no separate pricing for those who have their own skis and/or lift ticket. We offer morning start times and afternoon start times. Plan to arrive 30 minutes prior to lesson start time to allow your child time to gear up and meet their instructor. Advanced registration is recommended for all lessons but especially for our Kinder program. Space is limited and fills quickly.

Note: If no time slots appear on chosen date, lessons are full for day, please feel free to inquire in person on availability.

KID KRUIZER GROUP LESSONS (ages 7-12)

Kid Kruizers is a lesson program designed for children ages 7-12. Students of similar age and ability work with instructors in a group setting learning how to ski and board or build on existing knowledge. Kruizers is a great way for your child to overcome apprehensions and strengthen their skills on the mountain. Kruizer lessons are available every day of the week. Lessons are 1.5 hours long with options for the full package (lesson, rental & ticket), or just the lesson only if you have your own gear and lift pass. If your student is an intermediate-advanced skier we recommend booking a private lesson vs. the kruizer group lesson.

Note: If no time slots appear on chosen date, lessons are full for day, please feel free to inquire in person on availability.

13+ GROUP LESSONS

Adult group lessons are for ages 13+. These lesson packages include lesson, rental and lift ticket. We offer both morning and afternoon sessions running 1.5 hrs long.
Note: If no time slots appear on chosen date, lessons are full for day, please feel free to inquire in person on availability.

PRIVATE LESSONS

Want a group all your own? Or need help perfecting a certain skill?

Ski Teams


The Discovery Ski Education Foundation (DSEF) is a nonprofit, parent-run organization. The team has been at the heart of coaching young athletes with talent and enthusiasm since Discovery’s early days. Members of our team develop more than just the ability to ski extremely well — they also learn valuable life skills like discipline, focus and teamwork. Though being the speediest on the slopes often seems to be the priority. Race and ESP registration will open Nov 1, 2024.

Adult Clinics-With Yvonne Leipheimer

Our adult programs are designed to advance your on-snow IQ, show you the mountain and ensure you have a great time doing it. Classes run for three consecutive Wednesdays or Fridays. They include a two-hour group lesson each day and and are broken into 2 distinct skill sets, Intermediate and Advanced-Intermediate to ensure you are in a group that suits you. The Wednesday Intermediate class will begin at 10 am. Advanced-Intermediate will take place on Fridays 1 pm with the last class ending in February. The instructor for all classes is Yvonne Leipheimer, PSIA-certified instructor who excels at helping skiers break through plateaus and take their skiing to another level.

The deadline for the 3 week clinic sign up is TBA.
