Japan BASI Level 2
3 Month Training + Exam / £POA
This Level 2 instructor course takes place in Niseko, Japan. This place needs no introduction as the record snowfalls of the past 2025 winter were all over the news. This place coined the term Japow.
We offer everything you need to be with us for 3 months in resort including a full area Niseko season pass as well as a Moiwa pass so you can literally ride everything the area has to offer. Accommodation, training and exam fees and even transport on training days is all included in our pricing.
And with our Japan work and learn option you can even gain valuable teaching experience and get paid for it too!
If you haven’t got your level 1 then check out our UK Coaching for more info. Here you will find more details on completing this initial 4 day course with us.

Tim (Season Level 2 & 3 Week Course)"Having narrowly missed out on the technical side of my Level 2 Instructor course in 2018, I decided to return in 2019 to do the season option combined with the 3 week option. The prep week before the exam was invaluable for putting myself in the right place for the start of the exam. I’m delighted to say, that this year I got the BASI handshake and a pass."
Jo (Season Level 2 Course)"Ash and his crew guided us through every element of our training, setting us up well for the exam. Coaching sessions were well structured, with plenty of clear guidance and drills to practice in our own time. It was a fantastic course, with great coaches and a superb resort to be in....Thanks to Snowboard Coach for making it happen."
Jonas (Season Level 2 Course)"I’ve learned so much and developed my riding massively doing the Level 2 season programme with Ash and the Snowboard Coach crew..... I’ve done a lot of seasons including the big name resorts, but this one was one of the best. I’ve met so may amazing people and had such a good time in resort. Thanks Snowboard Coach for such an amazing season. Keep up the good work and ride on!
Tony (3 Week Level 2 Course)"Absolutely loved my 3 weeks doing my Level 2. Ash and Snowboard Coach make everything easy so all you have to do is ride, learn and have fun... You get excellent focused feedback that improves your riding day by day. Then at the end, I got the handshake, big smiles and super happy to say - the pass... Thanks to all the crew at Snowboard Coach for making this possible."
Beth (Level 2 season course)"I had the best time training and riding with Ash and Chris and the boys on the L2 course. I learnt so much over the course and the frequent video feedback was super beneficial. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t easy but the hard work was fun and worth it when I looked back at my progress over the season and seeing how far Snowboard Coach had helped me come."
Jemma (Level 2 season course)"The coaching was superb and really prepared me for the exam. Living alongside others on the course built a great supportive team. Would definitely recommend this training - challenging but ensures you reach your full potential and fully prepares you to be a damn good instructor in the years to come! Thank you Snowboard Coach!"
Dan (Level 2 - 3 Week Course)"Behind those goggles is a tearful eyed but so very happy BASI Level 2 Snowboard Instructor... Thank you to Snowboard Coach and Lyndon for the knowledge bombs and guidance and for making a little bit of wee come out.....Seriously though I wouldn't be here today without you guys."
