The Spanish Ski School began operating in Sierra Nevada as a ski training centre in 1964. Since then, it has contributed to the development of the resort and to the training of both students and ski professionals.

Today, the School has a large team of professionals dedicated to meeting its customers’ needs. Since its foundation, its teaching staff has consisted of qualified instructors certified by various organisations within the ski industry, including F.E.D.I., R.F.E.D.I., I.S.I.A. and official sports instructor training centres. These professionals are qualified to teach different skiing disciplines in several languages.

ALPINE SKIING
Enjoyment, ease of learning and rapid progression are the key principles of modern alpine skiing, which has evolved alongside carving ski technology. Advances in equipment allow for more precise carved turns, easier edge control and greater accuracy, safety and control when turning. At the School, we adapt our teaching methods to each student’s ability, physical condition and equipment to help them achieve the best possible results.

SNOWBOARDING
Snowboarding is one of the most popular winter sports. We recommend taking lessons both to improve your technique and to increase your own safety and that of other slope users. Basic snowboarding equipment consists of a snowboard, bindings and boots. Snowboarding includes several disciplines:

• Freestyle: focuses on performing tricks and acrobatics using different features and obstacles.
• Halfpipe: practised in a snow halfpipe with high walls, where riders perform jumps and aerial tricks. It is an Olympic discipline.
• Slopestyle: takes place on a course featuring jumps, rails and boxes, where riders perform different tricks.
• Big Air: involves performing aerial tricks using a large jump.
• Jibbing: involves sliding along rails and boxes using a snowboard.
• Quarterpipe: riders use a quarter-pipe snow structure to gain height and perform aerial tricks during their jumps.
• Freeriding: focuses on descending natural terrain and off-piste areas. When combined with freestyle features, it is commonly referred to as backcountry snowboarding.
• Racing: a discipline where the objective is to complete a course in the shortest possible time while overcoming various obstacles and technical challenges.
• Splitboarding and snowboard touring: a discipline practised with specialised equipment, such as splitboards, which allow riders to travel and climb through mountainous terrain.

SKI MOUNTAINEERING
This discipline is intended for experienced skiers and depends on snow and mountain conditions. It involves ascents, traverses and descents outside prepared and marked ski areas. Ski mountaineering combines mountaineering and skiing techniques and requires physical fitness, technical ability and specialised equipment, such as touring skis, bindings that allow the heel to be released, dedicated boots, climbing skins and, when conditions require it, mountaineering equipment.

CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING
Cross-country skiing, also known as Nordic skiing, allows skiers to travel across snow-covered terrain by gliding on skis. Its equipment and techniques are designed to make moving across snow easier, using ski poles for propulsion and support.

TELEMARK SKIING
The main characteristic of Telemark skiing is that the heel remains free and is not fixed to the ski, resulting in a distinctive turning technique. This discipline combines lightness, freedom of movement and technical skill. It can also help improve certain aspects of posture and technique in alpine skiing.

ADAPTIVE SKIING
Adaptive skiing makes it possible to enjoy snow and winter sports through specialised techniques and equipment adapted to each person’s needs. The School can work with different systems and equipment depending on the student’s mobility and abilities.

• Mono-Ski and Dual-Ski: the skier uses an adapted seat attached to one or two skis and may use outriggers to maintain balance and perform turns.
• Bi-Ski: designed for seated skiers with reduced mobility or strength in the upper body.
• Three-Track Skiing: a system using one ski and two long outriggers, creating three points of contact with the snow.
• Four-Track Skiing: a system using two skis and two outriggers.
