Ski instructors: taking group lesson bookings by level
How ski instructors can take bookings for group lessons by level: one service per level, places per group, morning blocks over a week, meeting point, weather.
5 min read
Group ski lessons only work when each group has one level and the right number of skiers. Take those bookings online: one service per level and age, places set to the group size you can teach on the slope, morning or afternoon slots for each day of the week, and the meeting point and equipment in the description. Families book before they arrive in the resort, your groups are balanced on the first morning, and you spend less time on the phone during peak weeks.
One service per level and age
On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description shown on your public page, and each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity. Describe each level by what the skier can already do.
| Service | Example slot | Places | Example price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kids 5–7, first steps | 2 h 30 | 6 | €45 |
| Kids 8–12, snowplough turns | 2 h 30 | 8 | €45 |
| Teens, parallel turns | 2 h 30 | 8 | €50 |
| Adults, beginners | 2 h 30 | 8 | €50 |
| Adults, off-piste introduction | 3 h | 5 | €80 |
Durations, places and prices are examples: set your own.
Places per group
Set each slot's places to the group size you can teach safely for that level. Each online booking takes one place, so a family with two children in different levels books two different services. When a group is full, it leaves your page.
A week of mornings
Each slot sits within one day, so a five-morning course is five slots. Open the mornings of the week for each level; families book the first morning online, and you book the following mornings for each child from your bookings list. First and last name are enough; if you enter the parent's email, they get a confirmation with a calendar file for each morning.
Meeting point and equipment
Say in each description where the group meets, at what time to arrive, and what to bring: helmet, ski pass, gloves, snacks. Ask in the note for the child's age, height and any recent ski experience, so you can confirm the level on the first morning.
Peak weeks
School holiday weeks fill first. Open them early in the season and share your link with chalets, hotels and rental shops. Outside peak weeks, open fewer groups.
Weather and level changes
If the weather closes the slopes, cancel or move the bookings and tell each family yourself, since Book doesn't email clients about changes. If a child is in the wrong level, move their booking to the right group from your list; rescheduling works across services. Families can't move or cancel online. Book doesn't take payments. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
