Ski & Snowboard Camps

kaprun-Zell am See, Austria

Whether you are an aspiring instructor, an already qualified veteran in the instructor industry or just a passionate skier looking to improve their technique SIA has a camp for you.

 

Whatever your goals, whether it’s your short or long turns, carving, moguls, GS or even freestyle our improver camps offer you the chance to take your skiing to the next level.

 

For all our camps in Austria as well as those in Argentina we operate through our own Ski and Snowboarding School Snowsports Co. Kaprun to ensure you receive the highest possible standard of training and overall experience on snow. So SIA’s chosen trainers will be coaching you on your next ski adventure.

SIA offer two different avenues of ski camp.

  • IMPROVEMENT CAMPS

Designed for every day skiers, from those who have never skied before interested in learning the basics, to the intermediate ski improvers and those looking for more advanced performance based training.

  • INSTRUCTOR CAMPS

For those looking to work towards a first ski qualification without the initial commitment of joining a larger instructor training program (such as those found here), or for those already qualified level 2 or 3 instructors pursuing performance development towards specific certification goals such as those required to obtain Level 3 or Level 4.

Kaprun is your ideal location to source your camp lodging with various options available on such sites as Airbnb and booking.com Being in Kaprun means that you have quick and easy access up the Maiskogel lift and onwards to the glacier each day but also allows you to enjoy evenings socials with others.

Alternatively Zell am See can be a viable option for accommodation with easy bus links to Kaprun and the lift system to the glacier. If staying in Zell just make sure that you take note of the bus timetable if you do not have access to a car.

The course was outstanding, the teaching level was unbeatable, the location was superb and the instructors and people that are part of the SIA team are remarkable… I wish I could do it all over again!
