Here are some points to sum up the Club Med instructor internship:
Your training for the level 1 will take place at Karuizawa, this is on the main island of Japan and it opens early in November. This is extremely handy as it allows you to start work at Club Med from the very start of the season and begin earning earlier in the season. You will be provided with accommodation, transport, lift passes and local support during this period and will stay in a traditional Japanese style accommodation in the nearby Saku City, which is a great opportunity to see a different part of Japan.
You can expect early season conditions here and mostly man made snow - for training for the level 1 this is great as you can focus on the foundation skills required. The snow generally starts coming thick and fast in Japan from late November onwards, so you can focus on training initially and then be available to enjoy the powder later on! There may be an additional charge for a meal plan during the training and exam period in Karuizawa. Exact price and inclusions are to be confirmed.
Note: During your training you will be at hostel accommodation in Karuizawa.
