One of the reasons I started taking lessons was to stay a better skier than my daughter.Thank you so much for these Deer Valley blog posts. I have a little pig tailed granddaughter who will be joining me when she's 3 in 2019! Can't wait to share this awesome sport with her!
I got my daughter started at age 4 because that's the minimum age for ski school in the southeast. She was skiing blues at Alta during our first spring break trip when she was 7. She was Level 8 in the children's ski school classes by age 12. She's 17 now. Had I known what I've learned in the last five years from instructors, I would've invested in lessons out west for myself sooner. Although I'm lucky that my little home mountain has a very experienced instructor doing 2-hour clinics for 50+ skiers that are a really good deal.
