Tailored ski and snowboard lessons with multilingual instructors

Run by an Anglo-French team since 2001, this ski school knows the Three Valleys inside out. Their highly qualified, multilingual instructors specialise in tailor-made lessons designed to suit every skier or snowboarder.

The team live for skiing and riding in the mountains, and their passion for teaching shines through naturally. Using innovative techniques, their private ski and snowboard lessons are suitable for all ages and abilities, from complete beginners to seasoned skiers and riders.

Instructors are carefully chosen for their skills and personal qualities. They work hard to help every client maximise their learning while creating fun, enjoyable, and unforgettable experiences.

The team are qualified across many disciplines, including slalom, freestyle, freeride, ski touring, and telemark. Their fully certified professionals focus on your needs and goals, giving you the chance to progress at your own pace and achieve your personal objectives.

If you choose to go off-piste, you’ll learn expert techniques for skiing fresh powder, spring snow, or wind-packed terrain, depending on conditions. With extensive knowledge of the Three Valleys, the instructors can take you to the very best spots.

Whether you’re new to off-piste skiing or already experienced, they’ll know the right place to take you. They can also help organise any safety and ski equipment you might need.

Where to meet

The meeting point is at Place de la Chaudanne, the main ski lift area in Méribel. You’ll find it just behind the Tougnete télécabine, in front of the Castors restaurant, marked with their blue signpost.

Their office is in the Marine Sports (Precision) shop in Méribel centre, right next to the main tourism office bus stop. The friendly admin team is available all year round for reservations and information.

Child policy

They offer children’s lessons from four years upwards in groups, and from three years in private sessions. Make sure your children are dressed warmly and have goggles or sunglasses (young eyes are especially sensitive to light), sun cream, and a drink - snacks are provided.
