Can I Observe Classes?

There is nothing better then watching your kiddo grow and learn new skills! That being said, we encourage you to observe classes from a distance or from the chair lift. We always need chair riders, so please reconnect with your student (especially those under the age of 7) at the bottom of the hill. We find that parents observing classes can be a distraction for kiddos and detract from the learning experience for your students and others in the class. The rule of thumb is if the kiddos can see you, you're too close! We appreciate you helping keep our classes on track.
