Choose your approach
CUSTOMISE YOUR SESSION
You choose HOW, or which approach works for your type of learning and whatever your needs are this season.
– technical/tactical, holistic, or maybe you want to ‘breakthrough’ limitations or barriers.
If you’re not sure, no probs, we’ll kick off with a technical approach and discover it together.
Ready to master the technical side of snowboarding and improve your performance?
These sessions are built for riders who are hungry for progress, serious about precision and want to ride with the wow factor. Clean up your technique, add polish to your performance, and build the mechanics that create true flow and style.
Whether you’re chasing personal mastery or stepping into the instructor pathway, this is your fast-track to technical excellence – where every movement counts and every run feels better than the last.
Join the 5% of snowboarders on the mountain who ride properly.
The BODY. MIND. BOARD approach is unique to Fresh Snowboarding. Together we will delve into all aspects of your riding, from physical and technical to psychological. This approach encompasses biomechanics, riding technique, equipment, mindset, environment and tactics – it is the fastest way to improve.
Recovering from injury, been pushed too far by peers, or have a mental block about an area of your snowboarding like freestyle perhaps? Breakthrough private lessons support you – your physical and psychological barriers. You’ll progressively improve with a ‘little-by-little’ approach, focusing on your technical understanding and providing tools to overcome the mental barriers you may experience along the way.
Choose your focus
CUSTOMISE YOUR SESSION
You choose WHERE you want to improve – your technique on-piste, your off-piste riding, freestyle or design a blend.
Transform your riding technique – improve your standard gripped turns; elevate your carving level; develop your ‘steeps’ riding; or navigate bumps with flow and ease. Work on your switch, high performance cross-under turn or cross-through turns and Eurocarves. These sessions give you the freedom to elevate – to refine old patterns, and learn new skills so the mountain becomes a whole new experence for you.
Learn essential off-piste safety, avalanche transceiver training, mountain awareness and improve your confidence off-piste. You’ll learn to ride with correct technique – more speed, consistency, stability, flow and style – whilst understanding your line and how to negotiate different off-piste snow and weather conditions.
Freestyle develops balance and helps you to understand all the intricate pressure points of your snowboard, which supports correct technique in general riding too. Choose one or both:
On-piste / flatland: Side hits, spins, ollies, nollies, presses, butters and combos, and jibbing off little hits on the side of the piste
Park freestyle: Grabs and spins on Kickers, 50/50’s (going straight) and boardslides (going sideways) on boxes/rails.
Want to become a rounded rider, capable in all snowboarding strands? I got you covered. In a private snowboard session we can blend a mix of different areas – snow condition and time dependant of course. Chat to your coach pre-session to come up with achievable goals and action plan.
Ride smart. Move naturally.
SCIENCE led. SOUL driven. PERFORMANCE focused

CLIENT REVIEWS
What people say?
Renelle is probably one of the most amazing instructors I have ever met! She is passionate, driven and joyful all in one. She has made me feel confident not only as an adaptive instructor (second discipline) but as a rider overall. The techniques and methods she uses will be stuck in my mind for as long as I teach. She is the main reason why I am switching back over to BASI to be the best Instructor I can be.
Max Alcock
Basi level 3 aspirant
I took a BASI course with Renelle and found her teaching style and character to be utterly inspiring. I was was lucky enough to train with her the following year for Level 3 prep. Her passion for teaching is so unique and her ability to sense out and refine movements within my snowboarding is incredible. She has a truly special eye for snowboarding and delivers her lesson with constructive feedback, non stop fun and elevated energy.
