Thinking about taking a GAP year? Do it in style with an adrenaline fuelled winter in Canada!

14th August 2015

Whether you have accepted that sought after university place or you are planning to go straight into work, have you considered taking a gap year?

Is it your dream to travel? Then why not reward yourself after all that hard work, recharge your batteries, and have one incredible winter becoming a ski instructor or snowboard instructor in Canada.

Our courses are perfect for your adrenaline filled, you only live once, ultimate year out. Improve your skiing and snowboarding beyond compare. Learn how to shred the steepest slopes and deepest powder. Ride through the bumps and terrain park with style and ease. With our expert coaches and over 250 hours of tuition you'll be a pro in no time.

Often we find that people can (understandably) be a little nervous about travelling by themselves. It's a big step. But don't worry, our ski and snowboard instructor courses are designed with this in mind.

A family-run company, the Simply Snowsports team of friendly office staff and expert instructors will put you at ease and make you feel at home right from the word go. Not to mention, you'll meet life-long friends and who share your passion and thirst for life.

As well as skiing/snowboarding hard everyday, we also play hard. We train 5 hours a day 5 days a week and you have the weekends free to do what you like. Our legendary après ski parties are stuff off folklore. Party hard with your new friends, often in ridiculous fancy dress, with great DJs and live acts in the heart of the Canadian Rockies.

During your stay with us you'll have the best winter imaginable but you'll also gain internationally recognised qualifications that add weight to any CV or open up snow sports career opportunities. Stand out from the crowd at future job interviews with certifications that show leadership skills, time management skills, customer service skills, training skills and much much more.

Think that you deserve a break before you move onto university or your career? We do.
