Adult (15+) Super 4 Snowboard – Group Lessons

All groups meet at 1:45 pm by the green adult flags at the on-snow meeting area near the base of the Magic Carpet lift outside the Village Gondola Station in Arai Snow Resort.

First Time riders (Level 1) have an additional lesson time option in the morning of their first day from 10:30am to 12:45 pm.

Your instructor will guide you through the steps to take your snowboarding to the next level. You’ll explore terrain tailored to your skill level, ensuring an optimal learning environment. From mastering fundamental techniques to gaining confidence on the slopes, our program is structured to provide you with a comprehensive and enjoyable snowboarding experience.

Level 1 for individuals who are trying snowboarding for the first time or those who are still learning to sideslip and balance on their snowboard. It can also be for those who would like a refresher after not snowboarding in a long time. 

Level 2 is for individuals who can side slip and do a falling leaf on their heels and/or toes.

If you can link turns on harder beginner runs then you would be Level 3 and in this case please look at booking a private lesson instead.

Once you’ve made it beyond Level 2, our focus shifts to more personalised instruction to fine-tune your skills. We don’t offer group lessons for adults beyond this stage but check out our private lessons page for some one-on-one coaching. We’ll help you level up your snowboarding at your own pace.

Currently, we only allow one-day bookings at a time for Level 2 participants. This approach ensures that everyone is placed in the appropriate group based on their skill level. You’re welcome to book additional days after each session, pending a review of your progress. This ensures you receive the best instruction tailored to your needs.

We try to offer as much consistency as possible in your program by riding with the same instructor each day. However, your instructor may change during your program due to our weekly roster change-over or if you progress your technique at a different rate to others in the group.

A valid Arai Snow Resort lift pass is required for all participants. Lift tickets are not included in the lesson cost but are available for purchase at the resort.

Both group and private lessons can be great depending on your goals and budget.

Group programs are a great way to meet other skiers of a similar ability level during your programs and are at a lower price but lesson goals must consider all participants’ goals.

Private lessons are the best for the quickest skill improvement and for meeting your personal goals but are at a higher price. Please see the Private Lessons page of our website for additional information.

Yes. All our guides and instructors are either native or fluent in English and all lessons are run in English. We have a large number of instructors from around the world, as well as from Japan.

If you are interested in programs run in Japanese please let our reservations team know and they can recommend another local Japanese snowsports school to you.

We recommend booking well before your arrival to ensure availability, particularly from the 20th of December to mid-February. Please contact our team at arai@myokosnowsports.com if you have any questions.
