The Professional Ski Instructors of America (P.S.I.A.) and the American Association of Snowboard Instructors (A.A.S.I.) recognize the easy transition made from the revolving carpet snowsports simulator to snow, and the sound fundamentals Adventure Ski & Snowboard School's students have learned.
Our instructors are highly trained, enthusiastic skiers and snowboarders, and are continually updating their technical knowledge of both sports through professional seminars and clinics. The experience, training and enthusiasm of our instructors will provide you with a high quality learning experience.
