Details
As in all our group lessons, your child will ski within a group of 6 children maximum. This reduced number allows the certified instructor to give each of their young "Yetis" all the attention they need for... monstrous progress!
Whether your child is new to skiing, masters snowplough turns on green slopes, is already doing very well on blue slopes, is skiing parallel on red slopes or manages the short turns like no one else, they will be placed in a course corresponding to their level from the first day of the week. This way they can enjoy the lessons and improve to become, one day, a "Super Yeti". At the end of the week, they will receive the "Yeti" medal corresponding to the level they reached.
Meeting time
We meet 15 minutes before the lesson starts at our office, between Intersport and the restaurant La Bergerie.
Ski pass
All skiers need a ski pass from the first day of the lessons. You can buy your ski pass before the first lesson at the ski lift ticket office or online.
Around 80% of reviewers award these kids' ski lessons a five-star rating, highlighting the significant progress young skiers make. Families consistently praise the friendly, patient, and attentive instructors, noting the school's welcoming "family spirit". The small group sizes are frequently mentioned as a major plus. While one review pointed out that communication could be tricky for children who don't speak English or French, the overwhelming sentiment is that this is a highly recommended school for a fun and effective learning experience.

Second year of lessons for our children aged 7 and 10. Big progress during the week with a team always so welcoming and friendly. It is "a family spirit". Thanks again to Olivia and Nemo for the attention given to our children who already want to come back next year!

Nice friendly people. The only point is that if your child does not speak English or French, communication will be more difficult. (there were no other Dutch children)
In any case, our children had a great time and learned a lot.
