Day 01

Day 1: Gear Integration, Balance & The First Slide

Morning session begins at our Tangmarg/Gulmarg base for a personalized boot-fitting and equipment introduction. On the gentle Baby Slope (Poma area), your instructor guides you through walking on skis/board, understanding the edge, and mastering the athletic stance. Afternoon focuses on "the magic carpet" glide, learning the snowplough (wedge) to control speed, and executing your very first slides and stops under absolute control.

Day 02

Day 2: Directional Control & Slope Navigation

Refine your stance on the snow. Today is all about steering. You will practice shifting weight from left to right to make wide, sweeping snowplough turns. Learn how to ride the Poma lift independently. By afternoon, you'll be confidently linking turns down the entire length of the beginner slopes, focusing on scanning terrain and controlling speed dynamically.

Day 03

Day 3: Progression to Phase 1 slopes

Graduation day from the baby slopes! In the morning, we ride the open Phase 1 slopes or the Gulmarg Chairlift. Your instructor leads you on long, gentle green/blue runs to put your skills to the test. Focus is on narrowing your snowplough stance toward a sleek parallel turn. Wrap up with a performance review, action photography, and certification of completion presented by Taj Irshad.
