No. We are really proud of our diverse, fun and friendly international team. Boasting some of the best instructors from around the world. Hailing from England to Edinburgh, Austria to Australia, and everything in between. All of our instructors speak good English, and most importantly, they have extensive experience teaching in English. Many of our instructors are native English speakers but that’s not the only important factor we consider when we recruit our instructor team. Our instructors are carefully selected for their teaching ability, people skills, and passion for the sport, as well as their fluency in English. We think this makes our team a well-rounded bunch and it means that we also have other language skills should you require them.

• During peak weeks our adult groups have 2 – 8 people.
• During non-peak weeks, all our French resorts have 2 -6 per group.
• In Verbier, our groups have 2 -5 per group and in Villars 2 – 4 per group.

Depending on which resort you’re heading to, requirements will vary. Refer to the ski school pages for resort-specific recommendations.

Alternatively, we’re always here to help. Get in touch for more info about lift passes in your resort, and for your specific lesson.

Unfortunately, we’re unable to offer to join a group for part of the week. It’s important each pupil is in the group for the entire week so that everyone progresses at a similar rate.

We are always sorry if you cannot make the lessons that you have booked, but if you do not attend the lesson on the day we cannot give a refund for the missed lesson or reschedule. We are happy to provide a letter for your insurance company in this instance. If you miss a day of a group lesson, it’s fine to come back the next day but know that you may find yourself behind the rest of the group and may need to be moved down a level if appropriate.

Yes, we always use avalanche kit when skiing or snowboarding off-piste. If you do not have your own, pleased contact us and we’ll bring kit for you to use.

Only the high-end groups like Backcountry Adventure or Advanced Off-Piste Adventure or will need touring kit. But that will be communicated ahead of time, so if you haven’t been told to bring snowshoes or ski touring kit don’t panic! If you have booked a private, please tell your instructor what you would like to do, so equally they can come prepared on the right equipment.
