Our instructor, Tom, was honestly amazing. Super patient, knowledgeable and really fun to learn from. He looks like he’s in his 20s, spoke excellent English (with a slight British accent), explained everything clearly + created such a chill, comfortable learning vibe with his calm and encouraging style. He mentioned he was trained under New Zealand certification standards, which really showed in his structured teaching.
We were three total first time beginners, and he made the experience fun instead of intimidating while still covering all the essentials. From introducing the equipment to teaching proper techniques, correcting our stance, and guiding us step by step, he made learning feel easy and enjoyable. He stayed with us the entire 3 hours and never left our side, which we really appreciated.
10/10 for Tom!! Only complaint is the class flew by too fast and we wanted more timeee. Qianhai indoor ski is a great place for beginners to learn the basics before hitting real mountains.
