Snow Valley is the originator of a fun and innovative learning environment!

Stripe Evaluation
All students are tested to determine their skiing or snowboarding ability and to restrict access to ability specific terrain. Green stripes allow students use of green circle runs. Blue stripes allow use of green circle, blue square, and black diamond runs. Beginner skiers and snowboarders may try the stripe tests at the conclusion of their lessons.

Adventure Centre
Unlike traditional ski classes, our unique Adventure Centre allows your students to develop skills at their own pace. Seven stations provide a fun environment for the development of:
1 - Mobility & Balance
2 - Stopping
3 - Direction Change
4 - Linked Controlled Turns
5 - Green Stripe Evaluation in a Slalom Course
6 - Introduction to Chairlifts
7- Rhythmical Turns on a Green Slope

Both the Ski Adventure Centre and the Snowboard Ride Centre are open Monday to Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., and from 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m., as necessary and from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.. Students may stay as long as they wish at each station and may attempt the stripe tests as often as they wish

Ride Centre
Beginner Snowboarders will gather at the Ride Centre Banner, then proceed up the wide load chair. 5 stations provide a progressive and positive environment for the development of:
1 - Mobility & Balance
2 - Side Slipping
3 - Traverse
4 - Linked Turns
