At every Resort there are certain people who love to gather and share their knowledge of skiing and snowboarding. Here, these individuals belong to the Blue Hills Snowsports Learning Center. Our instructors are more than just qualified, they are a closely-knit team dedicated to you and your enjoyment. We believe that creating a fun environment in which to learn and grow is the key to having a great winter recreation experience. Whether you’re a beginner or advanced skier or rider, our snowsports instructors can tailor programs to fit your needs.

For safety this program is restricted to the beginner area.  The goal of this lesson is to introduce the children to the equipment and learn how to safely get it on and off by themselves. They are introduced to maneuvering in boots, 1 and 2 skis, sliding and gliding. Depending on the skill set of the individual child, we try to achieve a gliding wedge (pizza) to a stop.  Reservations for Mountain Munchkin Lessons are highly recommended.
