Join our Ski Development Camp in Austria

The best way to kick-start your ski career

Our Development Camp is aimed at beginner skiers or those who want to learn the technique again from scratch. It is possible for everyone to learn to ski. At the development camp, ski or snowboard experience is therefore not required.

Is this your first time skiing and would you like a fun start with fellow young people and experienced trainers who can get you started off right? Or have you skied a little bit before but want to leap toward the next level and really improve your skiing abilities? If this appeals to you, then our Skill Development camp is just right!

The course is designed to give you the ultimate skiing experience over one, two or three weeks with training from top professional coaches! You will experience great ski development and really develop skiing skills. Each day you will work intensively on improving your technique and level with other Snowminders. Our camps run in November, January, and March, and no matter what length you go for, we guarantee you’ll leave with a big smile on your face and as a “newborn” or “reborn” skier.

ATTENTION! After attending our camp and your ski development, you will be qualified to join one of our instructor courses, if this is of interest to you. When booking, we will be happy to advise you on your options.
