Reasons to choose Nonstop in Banff
- We are the only company to provide training and lift passes in all THREE resorts (Lake Louise, Sunshine Village and Norquay). You wouldn't order a three course meal and then only eat the starter would you?
- Small coaching groups: We only ever have a maximum of 8 per instructor. Some programs aim for 10 in a group which is too many to be effective!
- We have been running for 10 years and are one of the most established course operators in Banff.
- Instruction - we don’t cut corners! You will have the best instructors for the duration of the course and we offer instruction on every week of the 11 week course.
- Our accommodation is in a hotel, not a hostel - Located only a 3 minute walk from the town centre (closer than any other course provider), Irwins Inn offers twin and single rooms all with double beds, en-suite bathrooms and cable TV. Not only that, there is a common room area exclusively for Nonstop clients, hot tub, sauna, gym, on-site laundry and a bar and restaurant.
- Our course director, also known as your host, is extremely experienced having lived in Banff for many years and is therefore able to offer you many Banff secrets!
- Our accommodation is right next door to a couple of very popular bars and steak houses offering you your own little community.
- Our unique credit activity system guarantees that you experience everything Canada has to offer. Activities including snowmobiling, cat-skiing, avalanche courses, NHL hockey games, trips to other resorts, natural hot springs and many more!
"Being able to ski at all three resorts was so good; it would kill me if we only skied at one resort!"
