Children's Snowboarding Lessons 7-11 Year Olds

Children’s Snowboard Lessons at The Snow Centre

At The Snow Centre, we have the perfect children's snowboarding lessons to allow children to begin their snowboarding journey. Our kids' snowboarding lessons are the perfect way to allow your children to adjust to the snow, understand how to use the equipment, and learn how to move comfortably on a flat surface. 

Once they have completed the basics, they will begin their progression through more advanced, age appropriate skills. These snowboard lessons will assign your child a highly qualified instructor who will help guide them through more advanced skills. 

Our highly experienced and friendly instructors will be the children's personal mentors when out on the snow. To ensure that each child can get something out of the lesson, we ensure that one instructor has a maximum of four children in their class. This allows the mentor to easily monitor the progress of each child and offer guidance and advice.

Children's Snowboarding Lessons Include

Making snowboarding accessible for all and, most importantly, fun is the perfect way for children to develop their skills. To make our lessons open to everyone, we ensure that every child has the necessary equipment to learn.

  • Snowboard
  • Helmet

When you purchase a children's snowboard lesson, your child will receive a snowboard, boots, and a helmet included with the fee. To ensure your child remains comfortable and warm throughout the lessons, you are advised to dress them warmly in waterproof clothing with thick socks. Gloves are mandatory on the slope but do not worry if you do not have a pair, as they are available to purchase for £12.

At The Snow Centre, we offer our own clothes hiring service to allow you to rent any missing items for £7 per item or £12 for jackets and trousers. Socks are able to be purchased for £6, and any of our snow essentials can be added during the time of your booking or at reception when you arrive.

The word from the slopes

  • “Easy access from M1. Plenty of parking, simple registration, and quick service to collect skis, boots etc. Both lifts serving the main slopes worked faultlessly and although the session was quite busy I felt the slopes were quite free of other skiers & classes. I particularly liked the snow conditions and at the end enjoyed the amazing cafè overlooking the slopes. Reasonably priced menu. All told an excellent start to our skiing this year.”

  • “Very friendly staff. Good, clean facilities and very good prices on lessons & lift passes.”

  • “Very helpful staff would recommend to anyone trying to learn snow sports very down to earth people.”

  • “Great place, nothing negative to add. You can rent all of the equipment down to socks. Any kind of lessons available. Parking, gear store, cafe on site”

  • “Great lessons with experienced instructors who put kids and parents at their ease. The lessons were full as it was half term, but each child still didn’t have to wait too long between turns on the slope. It was easy to get and return equipment and the food in the restaurant was great and came promptly.”
