Individual lessons for kids from 5 to 14 years

One-to-one lessons will provide your kid with an intensive teaching session, in which the instructor will fully focus on her/him in order to get the most out of the time available. 

Our philosophy is that teaching has always to be accompanied by fun and play, especially for the youngest, this is certainly facilitated by our sunny ski school camp, which is set up by our Ski School with lots of toys and interactive puppets.

It is just as important to us that your kids not only become good skiers, but above all become passionate about our beautiful sport and move around the slopes safely. 

A special bond often arises between children and ski instructors, which is why we always try to ensure continuity with the same instructor; we value the human side as much as the technical one.

Please contact us, specify the age of your child, and we will be happy to choose for you one of our specialised instructors who is best suited to your child's character and needs. Private lessons are also available at night. We recommend it, it is a unique experience.

Private lessons are available for each of the following disciplines:

  • Alpine skiing
  • Snowboard
  • Cross-country skiing (at our facilities in Palafavera)
  • Freestyle
  • Telemark
  • Off-piste skiing (with Alpine Guide)
  • Disability

The meeting point for individual lessons or group courses is at the top of the Pecol - Pian del Crep gondola, a few steps from the "Ristoro da Bepi". Mountain Hut. You will find our staff at your disposal in the first little orange hut. We recommend arriving at the meeting point at least 10 minutes before the start of the ski lesson.

  • Equipment: every student must be in possession of skis, ski boots and poles at the beginning of the lesson. The students of our ski school have access to special discounts at the “Live Civetta” Ski Rental (minimum of ski rental days and excluding certain periods) located in the Val di Zoldo Skiarea parking lot. For further information visit our Civetta Card.
  • Wearing a helmet: on the ski slopes is mandatory until age 18. We always recommend wearing one. The helmet is provided for free by the ski school, it can be collected from the office in town (Via Pecol, 10).
  • Skipass: each student must have their own Skipass. N.B. The Skipass is also necessary for beginners, without it any skier will not be able to use the lifts. Ask the Val di Zoldo Ski Area Skipass office for advice on the most suitable solution according to the child's skiing level and days of use.
  • Both our in-town office and the office on the slopes are always at your disposal. Please do not hesitate to contact our staff if you have any questions or need further information.
  • Reservation cancellation and changes: cancellations are free of charge until 12:00 a.m. of the day before the lesson. Any cancellation that occurs after that will be fully charged, except in case of a medical certification for illness or injury.
  • Ski passes and equipment are not included in the lesson price.
  • The Payment for each service/performance must be made in advance. Payment can be made either at our office on the slopes or at the in-town office (Via Pecol, 10). Ski instructor are only allowed to start the lesson once they have received proof of payment.
  • Lessons and courses will be held regardless of weather conditions. Only in the event of lift closures due to adverse conditions lessons may be refunded or rescheduled. Suspension of lessons is the sole responsibility of the Civetta Ski School.
  • Each kid learning at our Ski School is very welcome to all extra activities organised by the Ski School free of charge (e.g. night torchlight walk). Collect your Civetta Card.
  • It is very important that children are taken to the toilet before the start of the ski lesson.
  • Do not forget to leave the skipass in your kids’ pocket at the beginning of the lesson
  • Trust us: we know how exciting it can be for a parent to attend their kid's first ski lessons. But please, watch from the sidelines, leaving your child alone with the instructor will help him or her stay focused and learn much faster.
