benjaminteoh 0 Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 I will be going to Niseko from 22/12/07 to 3/1/8. I am an early intermediate (just comfortable with gentle Blue runs) I like the idea of skiing powder and improving my skiing - don't mind spending on lessons, private if necessary. Can anyone advise on a good school and are lessons available over that "holiday" period? Which of the area, Hirafu, Annupuri etc would be more convenient for such lessons?

thursday 1 Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 You'll have loads of choice for Enguish speaking instructors. You private lesson will start at about 12,000 for 2 hours. I rec Hirafu for you. All levels accessible easily from there. Look on here for some useful Hirafu info: http://www.niseko.ne.jp/en/ Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 If you are early intermediate, I wouldn't waste money on lessons, I prefer the get up and fall down method!! Go right up the top of the hill and make your way down! Works for me! Link to post Share on other sites
