Ski Lessons

Breckenridge’s Ski and Ride School offers various programs to help meet your specific needs for becoming a better skier or snowboarder. There are three separate ski schools located across Breckenridge: The Village and Beaver Run (both located on Peak 9), and The Peak 8 School. Breckenridge ski lessons cater to all ages and abilities!

For those staying at Grand Timber Lodge, we recommend the Beaver Run School for convenience. It’s also a much smaller school than The Village, which can get hectic at times. For those staying at Grand Lodge on Peak 7, The Peak 8 School is just one stop away on the Gondola.

Kids and Beginner Lessons

Ski lessons for kids are a great way to help them gain confidence and the basic skills they need to enjoy being on the mountain. The lessons give the kids an opportunity to have fun with other kids their age and ski level. Putting your kiddo in lessons also benefits you to be able to enjoy a couple of hours hitting the more extreme terrain that you like to enjoy.

What to expect: basics on equipment, the mountain, how to stop and get up from a fall, turning, rhythm, speed and how to load and unload the chairlift.

Intermediate Lessons

Do you know the basics and just want to improve your skills? The intermediate ski lessons is the place for you. These lessons will help you improve your skills and techniques, they will also allow you to turn the fundamentals into their own personal style.

What to expect: improve your basic skills, reach higher speeds and more terrain, transitioning runs, improving balance, technique and turns.

Advanced Lessons

Don’t get stuck in the rut of groomer-ripping. Step out of your comfort zone with the help of one of the advanced lessons and learn from the best.
