The seller recommends that Customers take out accident insurance prior to commencing the instruction.
6.4. Prior to the start of the instruction, the Customer is obliged to inform the instructor truthfully about their ski and snowboard skills and experience, as well as any health problems that may affect the sporting activity.

6.5. The Customer is required to follow any instructions from a JPK Klínovec instructor precisely and consistently. A failure to respect instructions and warnings entitles JPK Klínovec instructors to terminate the contract immediately without any entitlement to compensation. JPK Klínovec will not be held responsible for any damage or additional costs incurred by the Customer due to this procedure.
6.6. The ski or snowboard instruction service will be provided in a location and at the time agreed upon in advance. The SS may change the place of the activity or the conditions of providing the activity (provided that the key parameters of the activity are maintained).

The price paid includes any costs incurred by the SS due to preparing the Customer’s participation in the activity and any other related costs.

The Customer is obliged to present the receipt to their assigned instructor before the start of their lesson. The Customer keeps the second receipt (this can be used to claim discounts from the price of any further instruction). The Customer is only entitled to participate in instruction at the time and with the parameters specified in the receipt. Any changes to the times or forms of instruction may only be made in the office of the JPK Klínovec ski school. Lost receipts must be reported immediately to the office of the ski school, where a copy of the receipt will be issued to the Customer.

The ski school does not guarantee the same instructor for the duration of the instruction in the case of group lessons. Customers are assigned to groups according to their age and skill level. The “weakest member” of the group is considered in the case of group lessons. Combining persons of a different age and skill level in individual lessons for 2-3 is not appropriate. All clients receive free admission to the children’s ski park near the Max Klínovec bed and breakfast during their instruction.
