Telemark Lessons
Choose lessons from 1 hour to a full day. Generally a 2 hour minimum is recommended as it allows for a thorough learning experience and takes into account time spent riding the lifts. (A good time to socialize, enjoy the view, and rest those legs!)
Private Lesson - 1 person, 1-2 hours
Semi-private - 2-3 persons
Group - 4+ people
