Fernie 11 Week Snowboard Instructor Course Reviews

We know that moving to Canada for an 11 week snowboard instructor course is a HUGE decision! For some of our clients, doing a season this way is a once in a lifetime opportunity. However, some snowboarders use this as their starting point for entering the global snowboard instructor industry or living their lives in the mountains.

No matter why you’re thinking of doing a snowboard instructor course, we know from experience that it's helpful to hear from people who have been there and done it. If you think you would like to chat to someone who's already been though the 11 week snowboard instructor course in Fernie, then let us know. We have a load of previous Nonstoppers who are more than willing to chat about their experiences with you. Just try not to make them too jealous eh!

Check out the comments below from the latest batch of happy Nonstop clients from the 2013/14 season...

The best decision I have ever made was to come on the Nonstop program. It has not only made my snowboarding infinitely better but it has made me a better person and has now started me on a new direction in life.

Dale – 21, Queensland, Australia

It has been the experience of a lifetime! Every part of the course lived up to and beyond my expectations. I've learned more about snowboarding than I thought I could and made tons of friends along the way.

Alexandra – 28, Leicestershire, UK

Really good fun! It has been a great experience with opportunities to explore other activities that are winter-related, some that are a once-in-a-lifetime experience! I have learnt so much over the past 11 weeks. I feel my snowboarding ability has excelled and I am now more confident to apply new found skills to more challenging terrain. Cheers guys!

Alex – 35, London, UK

Awesome. I've achieved exactly what I set out to, which was to master snowboarding. On top of that I've made a lot of amazing friends and the current house I'm living with feels like a family. It's going to be an incredible wrench to leave. I've had the best time of my life on this course. The snowboard instruction has been of an incredible standard, both technically and the people. I never realised that they could improve me to the point that I can now ride pretty much any way on any run and thus enjoy the mountain and really express myself. That is amazing.

Jack – 27, Hampshire, UK

Fantastic - really glad I chose this course and Fernie. Everyone has been truly awesome - I have progressed so much in my riding that it is barely recognisable compared to how I was when I arrived!

Anna – 19, Moscow, Russia

It was amazing, best time of my life. I loved everything: the lessons, the partying and the people.

Sam – 23, Wiltshire, UK

Numerically – 100%. From the teaching time and individual analysis and feedback, to the sheer amount of organised AND spontaneous activities. In three words: incredible, inspiring, constant. I could not have hoped for a better time really....just longer. SO MUCH FUN. Obviously best life experience to date. Would recommend to anyone with just the slightest passion for the winter sports as it will only strengthen it and make you come away happy every day. I have never laughed so much.

Jen – 37, Essex, UK

Fernie is a beautiful place and I can understand why people fall in love with it. This has been a once in a lifetime experience which has been amazing and I would recommend others do this. Nonstop really is nonstop and I'm going to need a holiday to get over it!

Anni – 20, Herefordshire, UK

Total amazing awesomeness!! I never want to leave, THANKYOU! I've gained so many amazing friends! I've also gained so much more confidence on a board and this experience has inspired me to travel further and do more :D THANKYOU SO MUCH

Lee – 27, Gloucestershire, UK

The most comfortable, out of my comfort zone experience of my life. Exciting, progressive, life changing and full of new experiences. Unbelievable experience with great instructors, new friends for life, in one of the best places in the world! And it's nonstop fun.

I had such a good time in Fernie, mostly because of the people. I loved everything about this trip and I'm definitely going to try to come back. The Nonstop course was awesome, there is so much going on, it really is Nonstop! It is true what they say, 11 weeks sounds like a long time, but it is over before you realize it. Just because it is so good and you're constantly busy with something fun or interesting. Everything has been taken care of, you almost don't have to worry about anything except for making sure you are ready for your exams. I would like to say thanks to everyone at Nonstop, Fernie and the instructors, for making this the best experience possible!
