Adaptive Lessons
Here at Blue, we believe that ski and snowboard lessons should be fun and accessible to everyone! Our Adaptive Lessons are for individuals with developmental delays, impaired vision or deafness. Several of our instructors have years of experience as special education teachers, behavioral specialists, or are parents of special needs children. Our instructors will teach at the student's pace and comfort level to allow for as much independence as is fun & safe for everyone.
