The key for Maverix is making top notch coaching accessible to all budgets and levels of rider. This year we will be offering both summer and winter holidays, that will provide snowboarders and skiers with a year round fix. Our summer camps will focus on freestyle in Les Deux Alpes, on the best summer snow park in Europe.

Our Winter camps will be based in Mayrhofen/Hintertux with a focus towards, piste performance, off piste and freestyle. Expect top end qualified coaching, that will help you gain the most out of your equipment and that precious holiday time.

UK Ski Freestyle Day Courses

Even though most of the Maverix snowboard coaching staff are qualified ski instructors, it’s another thing for them to demostrate solid freestyle moves to enable you to see where your skiing will be heading. Thats why we have sourced some great ski specific instructors who not only have the skills, but have spent years teaching clients how to get the most out of thier ridng on piste as well as in the park. Feel at ease on this all day course devoted to progression on both rails and kickers.

If you have additional questions, with regard to this course, please feel free to contact the team.

UK Private Ski & Board Coaching

As we all know the best form of tuition is one-2-one. You’ll have a qualified coach with years of riding and teaching experience to help boost your strengths and iron out those weaknesses. Our team can work on both performance freeride as well as freestyle skills development.

You can book your coaching time online, and then discuss a suitable date for coaching. Currently private coaching is taking place at Hemel Snow Centre or Milton Keynes Sno!Zone. The price stated does not include slope time. That should be purchased at the time of coaching. 

UK Freestyle Day Courses

The first of it’s kind in the UK, the Maverix day course is the perfect development ground for aspiring freestylers as well as the best possible introduction for those looking to take their first steps into the scarey land of jumps and rails.

Maverix provides you with a great support network. We have our own park team, who build and maintain all features, with the best equipment supplied by Snow Park Technologies in the states, i.e. not a shovel in sight. Our own in-house photographer for selected events to capture those key moves, and crucially the best qualifified coaches in the UK who will be providing you with constant feedback and videoing your every move for future analysis.

Plus you’ll have access to the latest test equipment from Salomon and a bucket load of free gifts for every attendee. What more could you want? 

Our courses run monthly on either a Friday or Saturday depending on the location. Currently these are taking place at Hemel Snow Centre , Milton Keynes Sno!Zone, Braehead Sno!Zone and Castleford Sno!Zone.

The course is open to all ages and abilities. We aim to split attendees into two groups (max 8 per group) depending on ability. The groups alternate between kickers and rails during the day. The coaching focus is towards safe progression, through trial by choice. You do as little or a much as you want. You inform your coach of your aims for the day and he or she will look to develop your riding skills to achieve your freestyle aims.

Maverix is not about throwing you in at the deep end. It’s about being safe and having as much fun as possible.

The day course begins at 9.00am with a short briefing, orietation and safety video before heading out to warm up and hit the slopes from 10.00am. On hill activities will finish around 4.00pm, followed by a de-brief and additional video analysis.

If you have additional questions, with regard to this course, please feel free to contact the team.
