About the Activity
What to Expect
With our private ski lessons for adults in Val Thorens, take advantage of the advice and expertise of our team of instructors. We provide exclusive and personalized coaching that will allow you to progress quickly, and to gain confidence.
You decide with your instructor which technical aspects you would like to work on: balance, gaining self-assurance, speed control, parallel or carving turns, skiing in rough or ungroomed terrain, etc. Depending on your needs and desires, your instructor will adapt the exercises and route and, if you wish, can take you to explore the 3 Valleys. They will be happy to share their experience and know-how with you. Nothing will have any secrets for you anymore!
Each private lesson can accommodate up to 8 skiers. This means that you can enjoy the experience with other friends or family members, provided that they are of a similar level. You will enjoy these lessons in an even more friendly atmosphere.
Meeting Time
We meet 5 minutes before the start of the ski lessons.
Ski Pass
All skiers need a ski pass from the first day of the lessons. You can buy your ski pass at the ski lift ticket office or online before the first lesson.

Nice teacher, useful tips and exercises, clear English, lessons started on time, flexible for multiple levels within our family. Clearly more educational than group lessons for about the same amount (with the whole family participating).

What should I wear for my lessons?
You should wear warm clothing suitable for winter sports. Other accessories such as gloves, a ski mask and sunglasses are strongly recommended.
When should I collect my equipment?
You must arrive at the first lesson with your equipment (skis and poles or snowboard, and boots). If you do not have your own equipment, make sure to allow enough time to collect it from the rental shop so as not to delay the start of the lesson. Some shops even offer the option of collecting equipment the day before your first day of hire.
Do I need to wear a helmet?
Wearing a helmet is compulsory for children in some countries, but it is strongly recommended for everyone, regardless of age.
Where can I buy a ski pass?
Unless otherwise stated, you must have your ski pass with you for the first lesson. You can usually buy one at the ski lift office or online. Discounted rates may be available for children or beginners, so check with your ski school to find out which pass is most suitable.
Do I need to book my lessons in advance?
Generally, it is advisable to book lessons as early as possible. This is especially important during school holidays, such as Christmas and February, when lessons can fill up quickly.

You can work with your instructor on specific techniques such as carving, or skiing in rough or ungroomed terrain. If you wish, your instructor can also take you to explore the 3 Valleys ski area.
Can I book a lesson together with my friends or family?
Yes, you can share a private lesson with your friends or family. Each lesson can accommodate up to 8 participants, provided that everyone has a similar ski level.
What topics can be covered in the lesson?
You decide with your instructor what you want to focus on. This can be anything from gaining self-assurance and speed control to advanced techniques like parallel turns, carving, or skiing in rough terrain.
What is the main advantage of a private lesson?
