Altitude Ski & Snowboard School — Dorfstrasse 128, 3818 Grindelwald, Switzerland

This week I booked snowboard lessons at Altitude Ski & Snowboard School. The communication with the company is very easy and nice. I booked a group lesson but I ended up being on my own with snowboard teacher Nico. Not only did he teach me a lot of technical stuff, but he could also motivate me in a way to be more comfortable on the board. He was very enthusiastic, motivating, positive and I absolutely had a great time. I feel way more comfortable on the board now. Definitely book that lesson!!

We had a great experience with Altitude Ski & Snowboard School in Kleine Scheidegg. It was my son’s first skiing holiday and we booked 5 days of ski school. Alfonso was the instructor and was amazing, friendly and a brilliant teacher. My son was able to ski tough blue runs by the end of the holiday, all thanks to Alfonso. I would recommend Altitude Ski and if you get Alfonso as your instructor, you will not be disappointed!

This is my second time choosing this ski school after a year, and it was one of the primary reasons for my return to Grindelwald. My experience this time proved once again that it was the absolute right decision—it truly enriched my vacation! My instructor this time was David from the Czech Republic. Having been a national mountain bike athlete, he possesses a deep understanding of the challenges one faces during training, ranging from physical fatigue to mental pressure. He excelled at creating a relaxed learning atmosphere while imparting numerous technical skills. While leading me down the runs, David combined various teaching drills and cues to patiently correct my posture and power distribution. He was instrumental in helping me transition from the "pizza" (snowplow) to parallel skiing. Every part of his instruction—from the pre-ski warm-ups to each technical drill—was logically structured and purposeful. I would say to anyone visiting Grindelwald: don't just take photos and ride the cable cars. Spending a few days with Altitude Ski School to learn or level up your skiing skills is undoubtedly the best choice you can make.

The instructors at Altitude Ski and Snowboard school are truly fantastic. I who is a beginner skier made a lot of progress in just 3 days and my instructor was very thorough with explaining and always checked in to make sure I felt safe and comfortable. My daughter started snowboarding for the first time and by the second lesson she was already riding down red slopes and said her instructor was very kind and a great teacher. We highly recommend this ski and snowboard school especially for beginners.

It’s our 4th time using Altitude Wengen. Every single time Ben and his team go the extra mile. Every instructor, Matthias, Roxy, Val, Sophie and Jon have been simply amazing. They make the kids feel special, protect them on the slopes and provide great instruction to them all while making it fun. Can not recommend highly enough. Thanks guys. Pete Bristow and Fam.

Had an awesome experience taking beginner ski lessons with Greg - he was the best instructor and helped me go from 0 experience to going down slopes within the week. He tailored the sessions to my learning style and was honest and motivational throughout. Thank you so much Greg! ⛷️ I had such an amazing time and would recommend the Altitude team to anyone new to skiing! I can’t wait to come back again. 💪
