Total Transformation. One Smiley little girl
I was recommended to book my daughter in to see Richard prior to our holiday. Past experience of skiing for her have been quite traumatic. Highly charged emotions with physical side effects. This was a huge mountain for her to climb. Richard met her and within a couple of minutes she was very happy to be in his company and went for her lesson. Within half an hour I saw my daughter smiling chatting and learning and having fun! Her attention span is generally 5-10 minutes on average and Richard had her captivated and engaged for the full 2 hours. I cannot thank you enough. This wasn’t just a huge mountain for my daughter to climb but as her mum who could write a book on what it’s been like in our world for the past 6 years finding the help she needs with education etc. This is a massive positive tick. I can take her away knowing her last experience on snow was an amazing one and more importantly a really happy one. Thank you so much to everyone who I’ve been in contact with regarding this and thank you Richard. You are truly amazing

Highly Recommended
My son had a great time doing his taster session with Richard. He was very determined and eager to learn and did what he was told. Although my son has balance issue Richard was very kind and patient to help him when he would fall and making his session a fun experience.

Fabulous
I was really impressed with the instruction my son and his friend received. Both are dyspraxic and my son also has sensory processing issues. Richard the instructor was very calm and clear and the boys were engaged from the beginning. They loved every minute off their first lesson and we have moved from being very nervous about our first family ski trip to really looking forward to it. Thank you - money well spent. The boys can't wait for their next lesson.

A fantastic experience
Lesley was fantastic from the minute we arrived. Her kind, patient attitude immediately put my daughter at ease but she was also keen to foster independence which was great. The lesson itself was a huge success and I was amazed by how much progress was made. The feedback she gave us both at the end was so positive and my daughter can't wait for her next lesson. I feel delighted that I found out about snowmobility and would thoroughly recommend them.

Exceeded my expectations
My son had his first lesson with Al this weekend - it couldn't have gone any better. Al was able to successfully encourage him with all aspects from getting his kit on (even though he didn't want to / hates helmets etc) and progressed through onto the training slope really quickly. He absolutely loved it - hopefully lesson 2 next weekend will be as good too!

Great Lesson
Very impressed. Lots of input from parents about the child’s needs beforehand, which was definitely taken on board. We were very well looked after from the moment we arrived. Al couldn’t have been more helpful and his instruction was intuitive, intelligent, adaptable and fun. Our son who has ASD and can shy from new activities was very happy and excited and wants to go again. Highly recommended.

Thank you for your kind comments, I have passed these on to Al. The information you give us when you register is an important part of our session planning, the student is our focus and this gives us an understanding of their needs, so we thank all our parents/ carers for helping us to do what we do.

Fabulous result, great experience!
My first time skiing 81/2 months after a total hip replacement and not being on my ski’s for 8-9 years, I am astounded at the level of understanding, care and assistance I was given, I had no confidence when I arrived, I left with a huge smile on my face and my confidence returned, all the team were friendly and helpful, loved being back on the snow, would highly recommend Snowbility and will be returning for more lessons to ensure that I can safely enjoy a skiing holiday with my husband next year...

Thoroughly recommend this Snowbility group for children and young adults with disabilities!
Josh thoroughly enjoyed his session and he got his ski legs back, ready for our holiday next week! The staff were very kind and supportive and Josh really benefits from this type of social interaction when there is a shared activity. It was a lovely supported environment and I will definitely try and return (despite the distance) to future sessions, to keep Josh's ski legs on the move.
Many thanks, Lisa

Excellent service and lessons !
I had a refresher course and I am deaf so I was worried that I might struggle with understanding what my instructor was explaining to me. I didn't have to worry as Al made sure that I understood his instructions and helped me all the way.
Really enjoyed myself and look forward to returning soon.
