First week of Kids' and Teen Acadamy great succes

It's been a fantastic first week this season for European Snowsport's Kids' and Teen Academy. The Kids' Academy is for skiers between 6 and 12 and runs exciting 5-day, 5 half-day or weekend programmes at 5 different ability levels.

The Teen Academy is a week full of exploring for skiers and riders of 13 years and over. In small groups we kick off the week with skiing and on Tuesday we challenge our snowboardingskills. It's great fun trying tricks on snow blades on Wednesday. On Thursday we set off on telemark skis. To finish the week with a blast we head for the funpark on skis where we do tricks, air and find lots of new challenges.
