Ski Academy

Powder Byrne’s Ski Academy is the ultimate challenge for teenage skiers aged 14 to 17 who are ready to take their skiing to new heights.

On and off-piste action

The Ski Academy is tailored for advanced young skiers who are confident on black runs and looking to progress beyond traditional ski school. This action-packed, multi-disciplinary programme is designed to refine every aspect of their skiing — on and off-piste — with expert guidance, thrilling terrain, and a tight-knit group of like-minded peers. Whether it’s developing speed, precision or versatility, this programme is perfect for those who want to expand their technical ability, push their limits and explore all that the mountain has to offer.

Building confidence and camaraderie

Every Ski Academy week is bespoke, shaped around the abilities and ambitions of the group. From carving clean turns on groomed runs to tackling moguls, drops, and off-piste powder, participants receive elite-level instruction and coaching. The experience also includes introduction to ski racing techniques, freestyle skills in the snowpark, and guidance on mountain safety and avalanche awareness — all in a supportive, exciting environment.

It’s not just about technique — it’s about building confidence, camaraderie, and a deep love for the sport.
