FAQ - we answer the most common questions

Planning your first ski lesson, or just curious about how it all works? We’ve answered some of the most common questions from our guests to help you feel fully prepared and confident before you hit the slopes. Still wondering about something? Don’t hesitate to get in touch! We’re happy to help.

During peak periods—such as Christmas, New Year, and Chinese New Year—we book out very quickly, often well before the season even begins.

For other times of the season, we generally have more availability, but we still recommend booking as early as possible to secure your preferred dates and lesson times. Planning ahead ensures the best experience for you and your group.

The lesson price covers the ski lesson only. Lift tickets and equipment rental are not included and must be arranged separately.

However, we’re happy to assist you by recommending the most suitable lift pass and equipment options based on your needs, experience level, and itinerary.

20% deposit is required within 24 hours of booking confirmation to secure your lesson. The remaining balance is due 30 days before your lesson start date.

Please note: Your booking will not be held if the deposit is not received within 24 hours of confirmation.

Our lesson fees are charged per instructor, with a maximum of four participants per lesson. This allows us to maintain high-quality, personalized instruction for every guest.

If you have a larger group, please contact us directly—we’re happy to discuss the best solution for your needs. In some cases, groups of more than four may be accommodated, but additional charges may apply.

No, our lessons are discipline-specific. This means ski and snowboard lessons are conducted separately to ensure focused instruction tailored to each sport. If your group includes both skiers and snowboarders, you’ll need to book separate lessons for each discipline.

It’s important to note that your ski instructor will focus primarily on the least experienced or youngest participant in the group to ensure safety and effective learning.

To maintain a productive and safe environment, we require that participants be within two ability levels of each other. For example, levels 2 and 3 may join the same lesson, but levels 3 and 5 would need separate ski lesson. Which level am I?

We offer ski lessons for children aged 3 years and older. Our ski instructors are experienced in teaching young learners and focus on creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment to help them enjoy their time on the snow.

We teach all levels of skiing—from first timers to seasoned experts. Whether you're learning to make your first wedge turns, transitioning to parallel skiing, improving your line in the bumps, building confidence in the trees, or tackling steep backcountry terrain, our experienced ski instructors are here to guide you.

We’re passionate about helping skiers grow, and we tailor each lesson to your personal goals. The level we teach on any given day depends entirely on you—because your progress is what matters most.

Full-day private lessons include a lunch break of around one hour, which is counted as part of the lesson time.

Your instructor will usually be happy to join you for lunch and can recommend a great restaurant or café on the mountain or nearby. It’s a great time to relax, refuel, and chat about your progress or goals for the afternoon session.

Yes, all our ski instructors are fluent English speakers.

If you prefer another language, we can arrange that too—Chinese, Spanish, French, Italian, German, Slovenian, Czech, and more are available upon request. Just let us know your preference when booking, and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.

Yes, we do! We offer pick-up and drop-off service from your accommodation to the slopes and back.

For full-day and half-day ski lessons, this service is available for an additional ¥10,000.
Alternatively, choose our Supreme Experience, and transportation is included at no extra cost.

Let us know your accommodation details when booking, and we’ll take care of the rest!

Dejan and Teddy were a true pleasure to ski with and learn from. Not only are they great ski instructors but they make the whole skiing experience a lot more comfortable with their feedback and a lot more fun with their motivating energy, reassurance, and plenty of high fives. I couldn’t have been happier choosing Niseko Supreme. Every day was amazing and I wouldn’t go anywhere else for ski lessons. If you want a truly great ski lesson, niseko supreme is the team to pick.

An awesome group of guides who deliver a personalised and thoughtful service tailored to your ability and interests. We had Dejan and Juan for five days of guided/instructed skiing and snowboarding and they were incredibly accomodating and considered guides! We were a group of six and everyone had varied abilities. Our guides built up our skills and confidence while ensuring everyone was safe and happy on the slopes - couldn’t recommend more!

It was our first time skiing (40 year old lady and 5 year old son). I arranged for half day lessons on 4 separate occasions. Teddy and Juan were our instructors. They were just excellent! Very personable and friendly, yet professional, attentive and encourgaing! Both me and my son improved very quickly, and by the end of the trip he could go off piste and ski red runs while I was comfortably doing my parallel turns alone on green slopes. We could not have asked for better instructors! Highly experienced; can teach and cater to both adults and children alike. Had amazing first time experience and will surely come back for more next time we are in Niseko. Cannot recommend enough to anyone looking for private lessons.

My guided tour experience with Niseko Supreme was exceptional. The instructors were professional, knowledgeable, and tailored the experience to accommodate varying skill levels. Exploring Niseko's stunning terrain under their guidance was a highlight of my trip, and their passion for skiing and the local culture was evident throughout. Safety and organization were top-notch, adding to the overall excellence of the experience. Highly recommend for a memorable skiing adventure in Niseko.

I highly recommend Niseko Supreme for guiding you around the Nisko ski area and beyond. They have a lot of first-hand knowledge about weather, snow conditions, and safety. They made sure our stay was packed with the best skiing/snowboarding possible. And their knowledge extends far beyond just skiing/snowboarding. They know a thing or two about the best onsens and restaurants.

Teddy has been a great ski instructor with my children. She coached them over 2 seasons and was always super patient and kind with them. She was able to help them not only learn how to ski but to progress technically so that they had the confidence to tackle harder slopes. Juan also took the children for a few days and they also really enjoyed their lessons!

Amazing instructors! They were full of positive energy, enthusiasm and encouragement, and are good at explaining the various movements and form so that it feels intuitive/is easy to understand. Took lessons with them over 5 days as a complete beginner and was happy with my progress by the end of it. I look forward to taking lessons from them again the next time I’m back in Niseko. Thanks Dejan and Jazmin! 🙂

Teddy & Dejan - best ski instructors in Niseko! Have been skiing with them for 8 years! Can be excellent for kids but also for technical ski coaching for more experienced skiers

We signed up as total beginners with zero experience in skiing, and with only the warmest hearts to learn versus the sub zero temperatures in Niseko. Dejan showed us what skiing is all about, he was patient in teaching us the basics, and was fully professional from start to end. He was literally taking pictures for us in -10 degrees and encouraging us to enjoy the wonderful powder. Thank you Dejan and thank you Niseko Supreme for opening our eyes to the world of skiing. It was snow much fun ⛷️! We will look for you when we return!

I would like to thank Coach dejan & coach Hiro-san. Snowboarding is nothing easy to learn, despite endless and endless of not executing proper techniques. Coach dejan was utterly patient and encouraging throughout the 2 days lessons. Taking care and attending to our needs. Coach dejan & coach Hiro-San treated us like we are family, i highly recommend Niseko Supreme for lessons in Snowboard/Skiing. I will definitely be back for lessons with Niseko Supreme and hopefully one day conquer a mountain. I wish nothing but the best for Dejan & Hiro-san, well done Niseko Supreme! Lastly, rental recommendations by Dejan & Hiro-san was a lifesaver. It was really affordable & professional to ensure the proper gears are issued so we can have a fun and safe experience with snowboarding and skiing. Once again, thank you coach Dejan & Coach Hiro-san

We (my two kids, aged 9 and 5, and myself) had a truly wonderful experience learning to ski in Niseko with Teddy in February 2023. We were all beginners and yet with Teddy's guidance, we learnt quite a lot in just 3 days. We learnt to balance on our skis, comfortably take the ski lift and finally to manoeuvre the slopes by regulating the speed. At the end of the third of session, we were doing the green and easy red slopes (levels 2 and 3). My kids loved Teddy, especially my daughter who had a lot of fun screaming and playing in the snow with her. Teddy is excellent in giving the right technical guidance and has enormous patience. The two days that we were in a different resort from the one that we skied at, the team also provided transport for us. Looking forward to the next season when we can ski with her again.

Skiing with these guys since few years and I must say that I learnt a lot in very short time. The lessons are fun and challenging at the same time so you can get the most out of whatever little time you have on the snow. I totally recommend this company for skiing lessons in Niseko. Good luck to Dejan and his team.
