Private ski lessons

Independent local ski school run by former French champion skiers

featured in Private Ski Lessons

Amelia, Quentin and Jeremy are fully qualified ski instructors who were born and bred within the Savoie region and grew up on skis and snowboards!

Having attended many ski clubs in Val Thorens over the years, they have both competed in Alpine and Freeride/Freestyle skiing competitions for France with a few podium finishes in the World Cup!

The instructors each have between 10-15 years experience of teaching skiing and snowboarding in Val Thorens. In 2014 the three of them decided to set up their own ski school to share their passion for winter sports and provide a personalised service.

Their independent ski school offers both private skiing and snowboarding lessons for all ages and abilities. Whether you are a complete beginner tackling pistes for the first time, want to try out tricks in the snow-park or venture off-piste, they can help you achieve your goals.

Avalanche safety kit with ABS bags will also be provided for those going off-piste.

These instructors are able to provide tuition in several languages - French, English, Russian and Spanish.

Where to meet

The school has no fixed meeting point and will happily meet you at your accommodation or at an agreed place of your choosing.

Child policy

They teach children from three years upwards.
