Hey there, fellow ski enthusiasts, ski bunnies, snow chasers! It’s Ceylan here, and I’m absolutely thrilled to share with you how we can hit the slopes together this winter. As many of you know, I love skiing and I love teaching skiing. I’m here to guide you with patience, and understanding.

My Skiing Philosophy: TLC – Tender Loving Care

My approach to teaching is all about TLC – Tender Loving Care.

• You’re starting out… Yeah! I’m your gal!
• You want pointers to fine-tune your technique…I’m your gal!
• You want to explore secret stashes of Deer Valley… I’m your gal!

In-Person Lessons at Deer Valley

For the 2024-25 winter season, I’m excited to announce that I have a few private lesson days available. Here’s the scoop:

• February: Limited availability (book early!)
• March and April: More days open

To ski with me in person, you’ll need to book through the Deer Valley Ski School. Here’s how:

Step 1: Call the Deer Valley Ski School Reservation Line:

435-645-6648 or 888-754-8477

Step 2: Request a full day private lesson

Step 3: Ask specifically for me, Ceylan Sonmez (pronounced “Jay-lawn”)

Step 4: The agent will check my availability and confirm either on the phone or later

I can’t wait to meet you on the mountain and help you take your skiing to the next level!

Online Ski Lessons

For those of you who can’t make it to Deer Valley or prefer to learn the theory from the comfort of your own home, I’ve got something exciting in the works. I’m launching online ski tutorials in November 2025. Stay tuned to this space for more details as we get closer to the launch date.

Remember, whether it’s in person or online, my goal is to help you fall in love with skiing just as much as I have. Let’s make this winter season unforgettable together!

Ski ya on the slopes!
