We also offer private lessons for all levels, which can be completely tailored to suit your goals.

It’s a brilliant way to learn, explore the resort, and get handy tips along the way to make skiing feel smoother and more fun.

 

Children's Lessons

Starters

GREEN | Never been skiing before

This is for complete first-timers – those that have not even been on an indoor slope. Whether your child is nervous or excited we understand every child feels differently about their first ski lesson. Our team is made up of fully qualified, British ski instructors who are able to adapt to your child’s needs and create a fun, exciting and memorable first experience on skis.

What We do

Sliders

GREEN | Tried once or twice | Snowlife 1/2

Had a go a couple of times? Can manage a nursery slope whilst holding a snowplough? Maybe make a few snowplough turns? Sliders is designed for those children who have tried skiing a couple of times before but want to go that bit further. By the end of the week, we’ll have your children exploring some of the Portes Du Soleil peaking with a presentation and some cool prizes!

What We do

Explorers

BLUE | Rabbit Runs | Snowlife 4/5 | ESF Fleche

Explorers are group ski lessons designed for children to start moving around the mountain and exploring what is on offer. They can adventure over to neighbouring resorts, try the fun parks, race their friends and explore some easy routes through the trees. We have created a program that gives them just that but also teaches them how to be safe in the mountains and take that next step under the tuition and guidance of industry experts.

What We do

Adventurers

RED | Rabbit Runs | Snowlife 6 | ESF bronze+

Exactly what it says on the tin! Our aim is to go on a different adventure each day. They will discover new and hidden runs working on techniques to conquer exciting challenges as they go. They will ski on blues and reds throughout the week, as well as discovering hidden gullies, forests’ and jumps! Skiers should be comfortable on blue runs, skiing mostly parallel, unless the conditions are tricky.

Developers

BLUE/RED | Confident on blues?

Our developing courses are aimed at those skiers who are comfortable on blue slopes and skiing parallel regularly until it gets tough. The aim for these lessons is to take what you do on the blue slopes on to reds. We’ll look at technical, tactical and psychological issues that crop up on the slightly steeper, more challenging slopes.
