The older skiers also have the right to progress in a friendly way with our teens & adults ski lessons for all levels in Val Thorens.
Our ski lessons are designed for teenagers from 13 years old and adults, from beginners discovering skiing for the first time to experienced skiers ready to take on new challenges. You will be placed in a homogeneous age and level group of 10 to 12 participants in order to learn in good conditions. Your experienced instructor will be there to ensure your safety while teaching you new techniques.
For early morning skiers, our ski lessons start later than the kids lessons so that you can drop off your little ones easily. You can also choose the afternoon lessons to ski in complete peace and quiet, which is particularly ideal for beginners. In all cases, your instructor adapts to every situation and puts at your service their knowledge of the area to offer you a learning experience suitable for fast progress.

Everything was perfect...
I booked english speaking lessons on the second day the group was divided and i had another instructer It did not go well she would give instruction in french only so i did not know what she was saying. She also shouted loudly at me and made so nervous that I had a couple of bad falls and left the lesson early I felt so u happy that i went to the office the next day and cancelled the rest of the lessons My son in the other group also cancelled as he had the same problem he was the only english speaker in his group and was not getting intructions despite having previouly booked english lessons The recptionist at the office was very helpful and apologised for my bad experince she admitted that my instructer was not english speaking She arranged for us to cancel our renaining lessons and use the credit to book a one to one lesson for me the following day The one to one was an excelkent experience with a young man called Jules who was patient and a good teacher who helped me improve my skills
A very good experience, especially in connection with moving our daughter to a lower level, as this was necessary. A good and easy experience.
