We have a highly qualified International team led by Scottish trainer, Blair Aitken. Blair has helped to build the Val d'Isere ski and snowboard school from a one man band to 8 full time instructors. Over the last few years he has hand picked his team to ensure that Val d’Isere continues the New Generation tradition of offering high quality coaching for all levels of skier and snowboarder.
The Val d’Isere team will be running a programme of groups, technical video clinics and private lessons throughout the season. During peak periods we will run mainly children’s lessons in the morning with private lessons and clinics in the afternoon.
Ski and snowboard lessons start at the bottom of the Solaise Express by the large piste map. Click here for a map
We strongly recommend you book ski / snowboard lessons before coming to resort as we are a small ski school and run small groups. If you do have any questions in-resort you can find us in the Fat Face shop in the centre of town.
A great start to 2012
WOW. This has been the best start to season for many many years. We have walls of snow in the village and amazing ski conditions on the mountain. The off-piste is brilliant but please do be careful as there has been so much snow that it is very dangerous.
