The mountains! Fresh air! The thrill of gliding along the snow! You’ve dreamed of the day when you could bring your kids skiing, but now that it’s here, you may be asking,

“Uh…How do I help my child actually ski?”

An in-person lesson is a great choice, but they are expensive and once they end, what do you do with your kids then? Don’t worry, Mountain Mom is here to help!

Mountain Mom Ski School

The Mountain Mom online ski school was designed with you in mind! With bite-sized videos, downloadable pdfs, exclusive ski tips and more, Mountain Mom Ski School can help you teach your child to ski, or work as a supplement to in-person ski lessons.

Mountain Mom Online Ski School helps you teach your child to ski.

Parental and Professional Experience

As a ski mom of three kids with a degree in child development, I’ve skied with my own kids for over a decade.

Then in 2020, I became a Professional Ski Instructors of America Level 1 and Children’s Specialist certified instructor and helped dozens more children learn to ski.

And I can tell you one thing, kids learn best through play.

Teach Skiing Through Play!

"My son used to speed down the hill so fast that he once took out another skier on the bunny hill. After playing some of Mountain Mom's ski games he gained way more confidence and control over his speed."

"I joke that we watched all your videos and felt like Keanu Reeves in the matrix when he downloads knowledge into his brain ("I know kung fu") - but it worked! [Our daughter] had stable form and loved practicing."
