We enrolled our 9yo son in some Snowboarding lessons at Nordic Valley, this was his first night of lessons last night. I bring him to the class, and then I get a discount lift pass for the night, $12.50, so it really works out great.
I've taken him snowboarding 3 times prior to this, but wow, what a difference a proper lesson makes. He has excelled much further in one lesson than I thought he would the whole season. At the end of the night, he and I were riding the small lift up, he can exit the chair lift without falling, and he made it down the last 2 runs without a single fall.
3 more lessons to go this month, at this rate I'm confident we'll be hitting the big lift together soon.
