Reminder

Please do not assign instructors to lessons, instead add notes to the product and contact the private lesson chat you are assigned to (Tickets or Call Center). Just because there are notes on the lesson does not mean any special requests are guaranteed. Please also contact the private lesson chat for both special requests or instructor requests no matter how far in advance. 

Day-of sales can be done up to 1 hour before the start time of the lesson (as long as there is inventory). We may make an exception if the guest is accompanied by someone from Snowsports. If booking a lesson close to the start time send a heads up to the private lesson desk via the private lesson chat so they are aware of the new lesson.

  1. Make sure the product date is set for the correct day. 
  2. In the private lesson category, select the appropriate lesson type (ski/snowboard). 
  3. Convey all timing/pricing options so the guest can decide which lesson type works best for them. 
  4. Before continuing, check the inventory pool to ensure we have enough instructors for that lesson. 
  5. Assign the guest to the lesson. (Only one guest is required to assign, this should be the primary on the order with an email or the person taking the lesson with an email address associated).   
  6. In the "Private Lesson" section make sure the inventory pool is selected for the correct date. (click ok)
  7. Make sure all drop-downs are filled in.
    1. Under Level. leave it as unknown, we will collect the level in the notes  
    2. The start time should match the time the product is listed. 
    3. Assignment should be set to "assignment"
    4. The total number of students needs to be accurate to how many people will be in this lesson (no more than the length allows).

Cancellation Policy

Prior to 4:00 p.m. two days prior to the lesson date, lessons may be canceled for a 90% refund or 100% cancellation credit. Prior to 4:00 p.m. the day prior to the lesson date, lessons may be canceled for a 100% cancellation credit. 

No refunds. After 4:00 p.m. the day prior to the lesson, there are no cancellations or changes permitted since we’ve held that spot from our inventory and have assigned an instructor to teach the lesson. We know that weather and snow conditions vary, but if the resort is open for skiing/riding we will be providing lessons as scheduled and there are no refunds, vouchers, or credits issued due to these events. Thank you for your understanding. This is a summary of our policy, click here for complete details.
