It is not a problem even if none of you can ski as almost all ski destinations have ski schools where everyone can all learn to ski in a fun and relaxed environment. No prior knowledge of any aspect of skiing is required before you go. Your teacher will take you through everything you will need to know so do not worry.

Learning to ski is great fun and most ski destinations do have ski schools so make a point that when you select the destination for your ski vacation you select a location that does have one.
