What to Expect
Whizz down the slopes in Saint-Gervais! With our kids ski lessons for children aged 6 to 12, the path to success is all mapped out!
Supervised by our experienced instructors, children are divided into groups according to their ability so they can continue to improve and gain confidence on the slopes. Children who have never skied before join the ‘Ourson’ group and learn the basics in complete safety, mastering the art of balance, snowploughing and braking. For more advanced skiers, the path to the stars opens up as they master increasingly advanced techniques: parallel skiing, carving – nothing can stop them from conquering the resort’s red and then black runs.
Thanks to the warm, welcoming atmosphere of group lessons, children are motivated by the group and make progress in a supportive environment, guided by their instructor who ensures their safety at all times. At the end of the week, their efforts will be rewarded with a medal symbolising the new skills they have learnt and the challenges they have overcome.

We meet in front of the ESF chalet at Le Bettex, 10 minutes before the start of the lesson.
