My 8YO son had a really great time at Sandown’s Adventure Camp this summer - he went for 3 days and each day was packed with fun and adventurous sports and games. He was entertained, exercised and made new friends. The camp leader and the rest of the team inspired confidence and were charming and kept the kids’ attention. Big thumbs up from my son.

My son has been doing freestyle for a few years on and off during the winter months but hadn't had any lessons for a while. I had been meaning to book a session with James as a friend had previously done lessons and a holiday with him and said how great he was, but we had never got around to it until this week. All I can say is that after the lesson I really wish I had been organised enough to do it sooner. My son (13 yo) was looked after brilliantly by James and James made him feel at ease. James asked what he wanted to learn and tailored the lesson to him, making sure he learnt lots during the lesson. He even sent us a great video afterwards. I would totally recommend James as a friendly, talented and knowledgeable snowboard instructor and we will definitely be booking more lessons with him. The 2hr lesson was perfect as it was intense learning and my son was tiring by the end.

My son (15) is going on a school skiing trip and we booked four weekly lessons, one to one, as an introduction to skiing. I’m so glad we did this. His instructor Josh was brilliant with him, put him at ease with a good sense of humour. My son made great progress in such a short space of time. Book in advance as the slots get booked up quickly. I was so impressed with the Ski Centre - every member of staff was very friendly and extremely helpful. I have no hesitation at all in recommending this business. Thank you to all that work there ????

At Skizone our revolving, fully adjustable ski slopes replicate a real piste. The slope surface is an astro-turf carpet which offers the most economical way to learn and is suitable for all ages and abilities. With a fully qualified instructor by your side throughout the lesson and a mirror at the bottom of the slope feedback is instant and gives you the best opportunity to perfect your technique.

compared to both dry slope and indoor snow slopes, Skizone is the best way to hone your skills. i've learnt to both ski and snowboard there. the 3 main advantages that it has are 1) unlike dry/snow slopes where you have to waste time going up and down on the drag lift, at Skizone you get every second of practice time. so half an hour on their equates to many hours on a dry slope. 2) the surface at Skizone has a lot more friction than at the other slopes, so you need a lot more control to do it. so it punishes you if you make a mistake, which means your technique becomes that much better. 3) unlike a dry slope, the gradient and speed of the slope can be altered by the instructor so it can be made to suit all abilities. also the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Myself and my good lady booked a ski level 1 & 2 ahead of our ski holiday to Chamonix, the tuition we had was brilliant, David was confident, reassuring, and very patient, he taught us the basics of slow speed control. Ski level 2 was with Peter, again, brilliant, he taught us how to to start making turns, he explained what we needed to do in very simple terms, reassured me when I cocked it up, told me what I did wrong and how to correct it. Genuinely couldn’t wish for better instructors, big thanks to both of you. Thanks.

I had my initial ski lessons with Mollie who was wonderful, patient and friendly, I learned a lot fairly quickly... re-visited more recently to practice and failed epically, only to be saved by Greg, an instructor on the day, who again was wonderful, super patient and friendly, who helped me down the slope, gave me some pointers and kindly took me through a few trial runs to get my confidence back. Super stars all round and I can recommend the sweet potato fries and vegan breakfast as well!!

As a nervous beginner, over 50 years old, I've had 4 fab ski lessons with different instructors in the last few weeks - John, Alex, Ovi and Gary. All very patient, clear informative, and I'm making progress beyond what I expected. Slow but sure! They always work at my pace. Great facility and excellent instructors.
