Children\'s skiing in borovets

Hi, I am looking to book a skiing holiday in Borovets for myself, my wife and 6 year old daughter. My daughter can already ski a bit (linked snow ploughs) but is having weekly lessons in the UK, so should progress to basic parallel before we go. I am concenred that with ski school starting at age 7 the kindergarten will be too basic for her / not enough skiing. Can anyone who has skied Borovets before with a skiing 6 year old offer advice on how to overcome this?

re: Children\'s skiing in borovets

depends on the ski school, i shouldnt worry about the age, put her into ski school, shell be in a kids class (probably) selected on ability. Bear in mind you can always move her up/down if itd not quite right.

Ive got a 5 and 7 yr old and theyve been skiing for years, they always mix in well, the 7 yr old is very competent on blacks and races here in the uk

Thanks. Have you had them both in ski school in Bulgaria before? If so, have you booked this before you left the UK or once you got to the resort?
