What is the best age to start learning to ski?
Ideally, children can start learning to ski between the ages of 3 and 5, when they are beginning to develop enough independence and coordination on skis.At this age, they can start skiing on their own rather than between an adult’s legs, and their developing balance allows them to anticipate movements and adjust their position forwards or backwards as needed.
What are the first skills children learn?
We start with just one ski on, so children can push themselves along with the other foot, regain their balance and avoid falling.
We then practise moving with both skis, walking with the skis in a V-shape, before learning to bring the knees in.
Next comes the snowplough, which we call the “pointy hat” or “pizza slice”!
Children soon discover that this technique allows them to stop by themselves, helping them feel safe and confident on their skis.
