But be warned, your children will soon be overtaking you on the slopes! Teaching children to ski and snowboard using correct technique while safely enjoying the snow and terrain is very important to everyone at The Hidden Valley Club.  Many of our instructors have taken special courses in how to teach children. The emphasis during lessons for children is on safety, good behavior, and simply having as much fun as possible.
