Sports School FAQ’s
Why are age categories for ski and snowboard lessons fixed?
Age categories ensure lessons are tailored to children's physical, cognitive and social development, promoting safety, effective learning and a comfortable group dynamic, regardless of individual ski ability.
- Developmental differences: Age categories are based on developmental milestones in motor skills, coordination and physical abilities. This ensures children are taught appropriately for their stage of growth.
- Safety: Placing younger children in older groups may increase their risk of injury, as older groups often progress to more challenging terrain.
- Instructional effectiveness: Lessons are tailored to the cognitive and social abilities of each age group, promoting effective learning and engagement.
- Peer learning: Children learn better and feel more comfortable in a group with peers of the same age, helping to build confidence and enjoyment.
- Ski ability does not equal readiness: Even if a child is advanced for their age, their physical stamina and ability to keep pace with older groups may not align.
- By keeping children in the appropriate age category, we can provide a safer, more enjoyable and more effective learning experience for everyone.
What if I didn't receive a confirmation email?
If you didn't receive a confirmation email, contact sportschool@sunpeaksresort.com to enquire about your booking.
What kind of equipment do I need?
- Skiers need ski boots, skis and poles. Snowboarders need snowboard boots and a snowboard. Our Rentals team can fit you with equipment suited to your height, weight and ability. Helmets are available for rent, and children's helmets are included with all rental packages that include lessons.
- Sun Peaks offers rental skis and snowboards for all ability levels. When renting equipment, simply let the technician know your ski or snowboard ability, and they will help you choose the right equipment.
Do I need to purchase a lift-ticket?
To access any lift, including the Learning Zone, all guests must have a lift ticket or a season pass.
How many people are in each group lesson?
Group lessons have either a 3:1 or 5:1 student-to-instructor ratio. Tot lessons have a 1:1 student-to-instructor ratio.
Will I be able to choose my instructor?
Instructor requests cannot be guaranteed for group lessons. For private lessons, we will assign an instructor based on availability.
What are the benefits of a private lesson?
Private lessons provide one-on-one instruction tailored to your pace, goals and ability. With your instructor's full attention, you can focus on the skills that matter most to you.
Whether you're learning to ski or snowboard for the first time, refining your technique or returning to the slopes after time away, a private lesson offers a flexible, personalized experience. For example, you might spend time building confidence on blue runs before progressing to more challenging black runs.
