In a playful way, the children learn or improve their skiing level in the group lessons for advanced skiers.
Levels
- Bambini & Blue Prince = Beginners
- Blue King, Blue Star, Red Prince, Red King, Red Star & Black Prince
- Swiss Snow Academy
Locations
- Bodmi Arena
The Bodmi Arena is our ski school area, which offers beginners and slightly advanced skiers the perfect infrastructure. It is located in the village of Grindelwald and can be reached by bus in 15 minutes. This means that parents do not need a ski pass unless they wish to ski in the Bodmi Arena (it is best to buy a ticket on site). In the Bodmi Arena we teach the levels Bambini, Blue Prince, Blue King & Blue Star. - First ski area
In the ski area First we teach advanced skiers the levels Red Prince, Red King, Red Star & Black Prince. Parents can ski in the ski area themselves, but can also bring their child to the meeting point in the village. (Exception: for afternoon lessons, the meeting point is in the ski area!). - Männlichen ski area
In the Männlichen ski area we offer half-day group lessons for all levels from Bambini to Black Prince. As the meeting and pick-up point is in the ski area, this location is well suited for parents who would like to ski themselves during their child's lesson.
