"Gabriel was punctual and from the beginning easy going to talk to. I have personally spent myself going through different reviews of other ski schools and this guy's got the best when it comes to having fun and learning how to ski.

"I was so fortunate to find Jorick and have him as my instructor. Because of him, I had one of the best holidays and became hooked on skiing. Jorick was extremely patient and highly professional and helped me make huge progress that I never thought I was able to achieve."

“Arthur was very patient with our whole family of beginners, including my mum who was skiing for the first time at over 60 years old. He explained everything clearly and gave us confidence on the slopes. We felt safe and had a wonderful time learning together.”

He managed different abilities in our group with patience and encouragement, even taking us to another resort better suited for us. Thanks to him, we gained confidence to ski green and blue runs on our own.”

Frequently Asked Questions
A private lesson with us is always tailor-made. If you've chosen a morning session with pick-up, your instructor will meet you around 8:45am (8:40am during holiday weeks). Lessons start at 9am, right on the slopes. We take a few minutes to get to know you, assess your level and goals, then build the session around that: technical drills, clear guidance, exploring the terrain... The idea is to help you improve at your own pace, feel confident, and enjoy your time on the mountain without pressure.
We've put together a complete guide for first-time skiers in Chamonix covering everything you need to know before your first day on the slopes.
Beginner: usually 3 mornings to feel safe on green runs by yourself.
Returning skier (haven't skied for years): a single lesson can be enough to unlock progress and rebuild confidence.
Improving intermediate: 2 to 3 half days or 2 full days, ideally with the same instructor.
Book your sessions well in advance: during school holidays we're often fully booked weeks ahead. It's better to plan 2 or 3 days upfront than hope to add a session once you're here.
Group size: 1 to 6 people, all from your own party.
Pricing: 1 to 4 people = same lesson price (yours, alone or shared with your group). 5 or 6 people = +€15 per additional person.
Solo skier: you book a private 1-on-1 lesson, at the same price as up to 4 people. We don't share lessons between strangers.
A friend wants to join: yes, as long as they have the same skill level. If the total stays at 1–4 people, no extra cost. From 5 to 6, add €15/person.
Same skill level: everyone in the group should share roughly the same level for the lesson to work. We can split the time between two levels, but we can't teach beginners and advanced together at once.
One discipline at a time: ski OR snowboard, not both in the same lesson, since the instructor needs to demonstrate as well as explain.
Children can start skiing from 4 years old and snowboarding from 7 years old. Beginners aged 4 to 6 get their own lesson, separate from participants aged 12 and over.
For kids under 7, we recommend a separate lesson from the parents — the pace and teaching approach are very different. Older children can sometimes join their parents' lesson. We'll discuss this with you by email when you book to make sure the setup works before the lesson starts.
No, the lift pass is not included in the lesson price. Each participant will need a valid ski pass to access the slopes. For beginners, special "beginner passes" are available at a reduced cost.
No, ski and snowboard equipment is not included. You'll find rental shops at our meeting points.
Yes, for lessons starting at 9 am we can arrange pick-up directly from your accommodation at no extra cost. Please note that pick-up depends on the instructor's car capacity and cannot be guaranteed.
Yes, just mention their name when booking ("We'd like Theo again", "We had Pierre last March"). We keep a client history and try to match you with the same instructor whenever possible.
If your instructor is unavailable on your dates, we'll suggest someone with a similar teaching style and brief them on your preferences.
Probably not. Muscle memory comes back faster than you'd think. We typically classify a returning skier as novice or intermediate, depending on what you remember.
Tell us your last comfortable terrain (green / blue / red runs) when booking, and your instructor will calibrate from there. Day 1 is usually a "feel it again" session, and most students are surprised how quickly it comes back.
