Our December ski camp welcomes racers at every stage of their skiing. First timers in gates are given room to find their feet, moving from steady plough parallel turns into cleaner, more committed parallel turns before taking on a course. Athletes at improver camp level spend the week sharpening their line and rhythm, while advanced skiers push into tighter sets and firmer snow.
Young athletes from ten years old upwards are welcome, and because we group by age and ability, nobody is held back or hurried along. If ski racing is a new sport for your child, this is a friendly way in, and if they already race for a club, it is the ideal early season sharpener.
Arrival day is a settled one. We meet the team, run through kit and boot set up, and get a first look at the hill so everyone starts the week feeling ready. From there, each morning begins early while the pistes are quiet and the snow is at its best, with a short break for hot chocolate before the session builds. Afternoons move between gates and free skiing, depending on the weather. Evenings are for warming up, comparing notes with the coaches and resting properly, because a good night matters as much as the work on snow.
Avoriaz is a wonderful place to ski beyond a race course, so we make time for it. Coaches take groups out to read variable snow, handle a little off piste and take in the breathtaking views across the Portes du Soleil. It is where new skills stick, because real terrain teaches balance in a way no drill can. Snowboarders in the family are looked after too through our snowboard school, and private lessons can run in the same week for anyone who wants extra time with an instructor.
