Set for children, youth and adults who are novice to the sport as well as more advanced riders, we have qualified instructors for every ability level. A ski trial run and video recording in the first lesson will help find you your place in the right ability group.

Zero Liability Policy: We take the safety of our clients very seriously, and we take all necessary precautions to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience during our ski school lessons. However, we cannot be held liable for any injuries or accidents that may occur during the lesson. By booking a ski school lesson with us, you acknowledge that skiing and snowboarding involve inherent risks, and you assume full responsibility for your own safety. Instructors will decide what they consider in their sole discretion appropriate terrain for the level of skiers or boarders in their lessons. This may be on or off the piste or steeper lifts,... You must ensure that you, and everybody you book on behalf of, has insurance to cover this eventuality, or you must decline from going off-piste/lifts. If you or those for whom you have booked do so without such insurance, it will be due to your own negligence. If you or any of your party become uncomfortable, you must tell the instructor immediately so they can take immediate action to keep you safe.
All persons who use our services must always act in a safe and appropriate manner, both on and off the snow. Situations can develop for the worse very quickly in mountainous environments and without any prior indication that they might happen. We reserve the right to remove and exclude anyone from lessons without warning (and without giving any reason at the time) to those who are not adhering to relevant safety guidelines and/or directions from instructors. This can be expected where you are in any way endangering yourself or others, where the experience of other participants is being adversely affected, where physical or verbal abuse of any other person is evident or suspected, and whether or not you believe exclusion is acceptable or not. In such a circumstance you will not be entitled to any refund or reimbursement.
Such situations may include but are not limited to the following:
a. not adhering to the safety guidelines mentioned by the instructor and/or using your common sense to keep yourself safe;
b. not following directions given to you by the instructor;
c. failing to adhere to the International Ski Federation Code of Conduct – ie the 10 FIS Rules of Conduct;
d. skiing under the influence of alcohol or any drug that may adversely affect your physical coordination or mental state;
e. putting any other person at risk of injury and/or in danger
You remain responsible at all times for the conduct of persons for whom you book services at Porters Alpine Resort.
Changes to Terms and Conditions: We reserve the right to modify these terms and conditions at any time without prior notice. The most current version of the terms and conditions will always be available on our website. By booking a ski school lesson with us, you agree to be bound by the most current version of these terms and conditions.
