I would give 6 stars if Google allow me to. The instructors are very friendly and professional. I have Bogdan as instructor. He is very encouraging, knowledgeable, patient and funny. :) Roxana, the owner, is helpful and friendly as we asked all sort of questions before /during the lesson. She also replied our email very promptly. We really enjoyed our 3 days of lessons and hopefully could come back again next time! Thank you R&J!

I had private lessons with Adi, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'd like to highlight the following points: - He is extremely knowledgeable and quickly taught me the right techniques, helping me improve rapidly. - We didn't waste any time; we learned new things swiftly, allowing me to try more challenging slopes sooner. - As a beginner, I always felt secure. - Adrian provides precise and effective guidance. - The entire ski school team is friendly, accommodating, and helpful, addressing individual preferences from initial contact to lesson flexibility, equipment exchange (even mid-lesson), and assistance. I also compared prices with another ski school, and here they were lower without compromising quality. Thank you! I had a great time and will return.

R&J Ski School is the place where my passion for skiing took of at a very young age. I've had the most amazing instructors and models to look up to. They helped me out a lot of situations teaching me about technique, but also equipment, as their center is all about that. Recently, they brought the newest boot fitting technology here, in Romania, where i had a chance of trying it out. I have never been 100% comfortable in my ski boots, so this was a game changer. They've got all different types of tools, such as a 3D scanner and a machine that morphs on your feet, to create the perfect fit. To top it all off, these procedures are done by certified professionals, so there's no way this won't be beneficial for your enjoyment out on the slopes. I recommend the R&J Ski School with all of my heart, it's one of the few companies left that actually love what they're doing + doing it fair and square. 5 stars place and people!

Had a great experience renting equipment and taking private lessons with R&J. Adi was a fantastic ski instructor who helped our group of three improve despite us all being at different levels. He particularly helped me improve my parallel skills and also provided lots of confidence to my friend who was terrified of skiing to begin with but happily going down the mountain by the end of our sessions. The shuttle service is also very good given how busy the resort was. My only complaint is about the busyness of the resort, as the long lift queues meant we couldn't ski for longer - but this was of course nothing to do with the ski school who did their best to get us on the pistes

Best experience we had in the mountain! Staff is impeccable and made our holidays very special and unforgettable. Adi was my instructor and the most amazing and encouraging person, I felt very lucky to have him as instructor and always having the best energy during the days together and all the challenges. Thanks again Adi and the team for such a great experience! I can’t recommend enough

Roxana is the best and most patient instructor ever. This school run by these wonderful people will make your experience totally perfect. Super efficient communication, fair prices, safety, great equipment, seamless experience. Highly recommended. Thank you for making it special for us!

I am writing to express my utmost satisfaction with R&J ski school located in Poiana Brașov, Romania. My husband and I had the pleasure of taking lessons with Adrian and I can confidently say that it was an amazing experience. Adrian was an incredible instructor – he was patient, knowledgeable, and encouraging. He was able to provide us with the perfect balance of instruction and fun throughout our lessons. We were both new to skiing and Adrian was able to help us progress quickly. We are so thankful for the great experience. I would also like to thank Roxana and Janin for running such an excellent ski school. They have created a positive and professional atmosphere that truly enhances the learning experience. We are so glad that we chose R&J ski school and we can't wait to come back. Thank you again!

Staff are friendly and professional. Our instructor, Bogdan, was super friendly and patient with a good sense of humour. Prices are decent. Gears are available to rent.

Amazing team of people at R&J. Helpful, friendly and professional. I had Bodgan as my 1-1 ski instructor and he was very experienced, encouraging and patient throughout the 3-day lesson that enable me to progress quickly. Special shoutout to also the other ski instructors Adri, Horatio and the rest of the people from the ski center that always show up with the best vibes and positive atmosphere every morning. Also thanks to Roxy who was kind enough to lend me her ski jacket as I didn’t have one and there wasn’t any other ski rental available nearby. We are so grateful to leave Braşov with such memorable and great experience. Mulțumesc! :) 2023.12.28-30 Xandra

Excellent impression. Excellent equipment. Owners became nearly friends after the lessons and week in Poiana. Next season definitely will come back for equipment and more of lessons. My wife was extremely happy with Roxana. We were allowed to keep equip over nights with us, so a lot of time saved. All the best and lots of snow! Keep going great way!

Best instructors Adi&Nicu!!! Thank you R&J for my kids first time ski experience!!!! Highly recommended!!!

R &J did a great job teaching my son (8 years old) to ski for the first time. After 2 lessons of 2 hours each, my son could ski himself down the Bradul slope (and beyond) without falling over. Roxana and the team are very responsive to emails and calls. When we arrived each day, they helped us a lot getting into our ski gear and even driving us to the slope before the lessons and collecting us at end of day. Good value / price for lessons and gear hire. Quality ski equipment. Good English spoken by all. This is a serious outfit and highly recommended.

I want to highly recommend R&J Ski School because of a lot of things. First, and most importantly are the owners, Janin and Roxanh, very nice, sweet honest people, two professional skiers who employs only professional ski instructors. The equipment is top of the notch and in a very good condition. The ski school is located not too far from the slops and the school has a shuttle that goes on a very frequent basis to and from the slops, which makes it very easy with the equipment. The prices are fair and reasonable. I had a great experience and although I am not a young person I have learned to ski in 5 lessons, and have no doubt that I will return next year to practice and improve what I have already learned.

Great experience! We've been returning to R&J Ski School for years now, my son started here when he was 4 and a half. I myself took a some lessons for a couple years, to improve my skills. We've been working with most of their instructors, all different, all wonderful, joyful people, with great teaching skills. I have realised I had never left a review before, now that my son is almost turning 8 and his favorite thing in life so far is skiing in their company. We're grateful for their professionalism, for their care and attention (they never failed to accommodate his needs, though he is suffering from a severe allergy and asthma), for their great communication skills and flexibility, for all the knowledge they shared from skiing to taking care of the equipment... Overall, during those years the people at R&J started to feel like our winter extended family.

The instructors were great! Took a private lesson for my 6 years old first time, and 2 more couples lesson for my husband and I, and for my other 2 kids. Roxana, Horatio and Haroi were wonderful, patient and we made great progress with them. They give you a ride to the lift and back so no need to carry all the stuff.

Very welcoming staff! They are passionate about what they are doing and will offer you the best advice and equipment for rental. Guarded parking lot. By the way, ask for the transportation service to the ski slope.

Very nice, well organized and respectful crew. My 6 yo son had some ski lessons, I took the snowboarding ones. The instructors (Andrei & Horatiu) were well prepared, very friendly and cheerful and had a lot of patience with us. We felt they were really interested in making us succeed at being good skiers or snowboarders. I strongly recommend R&J as I don't think you can find better ones in Poiana Brasov.

My partner and I had the best time learning to ski with Roxane. She is very kind, extremely knowledgeable and an excellent teacher! She took the time to explain things thoroughly and demonstrated all the basics. I’d highly recommend a ski lesson here - all the staff are lovely too!

WOW!! What an incredible service from R&J ski school. We rented equipment for three days, each morning we were greeted by Roxanna and team who were always super friendly! Our stuff was ready for us to put on straight away and then the shuttle car took us straight to the slopes. As soon as we had finished skiing the car picked us up and took us straight back to the shop where the team asked about our day! First time in Poiana Brasov will definitely return and every time we will us R&J’s to hire our skis from. Thank you :))

I totally agree with the comment below about wishing we could give R&J six stars on Google! My experience with them during two private ski lessons was excellent. They were highly professional, communication was effortless, and the team was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Andrew, my instructor, was fantastic – experienced, patient, and very encouraging. A big thank you to R&J for providing such a safe and fun experience!

We had a great experience at Roxana's and Jenin's ski school! My 4 year old son discovered skiing for the first time with Roxana and Nicu, and really loved it! They managed to make it fun for him to ski 2 hours in a row, and after 2 days he was almost independently skiing down the slope! But most importantly, he really liked his instructors and had fun skiing, for which I am extremely grateful to both of them! And to the entire team for their flexibility and professionalism. We look forward to coming back next year!

I want to say that I chose the best ski school I could ask for Roxanna and Jenin You gave me and my children a service experience that will not be forgotten for a long time together with the team of instructors Lucio and Nick We had the pleasure to receive from your experience and see that you love what you do

We got in touch with the school virtually and we got all the information via watzap. We had a very nice experience with the school (nicer than other instructors and renting we tried in other years) we also rented the equipment from them . We organised everything 1day in advance, the price was clear and transparent and we could pay by card or cash. Roxana, the instructors and the staff have been very warm and friendly. The kids loved their sky and snowboard instructors and they did great progress. The good thing is that part of the arrangement we had a car that took us to and from to the slopes we decided to take that day. That is great as we could sky without being too concerned as to which side of the sky slopes we would need to get to, so this gave us much more freedom and a feeling of ease knowing that no matter where we end up down the slope someone will pick us up.

Super friendly, good value for money, and a 5* service, I would definitely recommend going here for both rental and lessons 👍🏼 We went for 6 days and there were 5 of us. Some had lessons and all used the hire. They have a very efficient shuttle service that picks you up from any of the cable cars/gondolas to and fro the shop.

Really fantastic ski school and equipment hire shop. Very welcoming, and really great value. I really cannot recommend them highly enough The staff are amazingly helpful, and the instructors are brilliant. I had never skied before, but after just four hours of lessons, my instructor had me confidently zipping down the slopes. As a result I’m entirely hooked on skiing, and will definitely be back. A huge ‘thank you’, to everyone at R&J Ski School. You were wonderful.

I had a wonderful experience with the all the Team at R&J, very friendly, understanding staff, and a great range of equipment to suit everybody's needs. I had never skied before so I booked two, two hour lessons with Rareș. He was very patient, friendly and clearly knew his stuff. He covered me from the basics to parallel skiing towards the end of the second lesson. I'm pleased I got some lessons and at a very good price.

We had a very nice first day of learning to ski. Me and my future wife had Alain as our ski instructor, I totally recommend him as he is a very calm and helpful person with a vast experience in this field. The owners are very nice, polite and very helpful with any questions that you may have. I will recommend them for any of my friends who would like this kind of experience and we cannot wait for the next days were we will be able to learn to ski even better using all the knowledge they have. Keep up the good work!

My 3 and a half years old son had an amazing first skiing experience with Andreea, she managed to keep him focused for 2 hours in a row and after 4 sessions his evolution was incredible! Andreea is extremely sweet with children, she is making up stories to enter their world and they are following her completely fascinated! The best way to learn how to ski for children! I would recommend her with all my heart to anyone who wants for their child a learn & love skiing experience !

It was my first time having ski lessons and I have Adri and Lucian as my instructors. I have a good experience and enjoyed skiing during these 3 days. Roxana is patient and willing to help us on any matters. The Ski school has full ski equipment and we can rent it at there. I will come back if there is any chance.
