Yes absolutely! Mathilde and Nana were excellent brought us from the basics to confidence over 3 days.
Afiq · Solo travelerUnited Kingdom · April 2026
I’ve had fantastic instructors! Matin and Nana are clear with their communications and very understanding/friendly. For a first timer trying skiing for 3 days, I am pleasantly surprised with my progress thanks to their detailed step by step instructions. We explored various areas which have different level of difficulties, all were properly explained and guided by the instructors! For me it is the only way to enjoy Val Thorens and learn skiing. What is equally important beyond the instructions is they helped you build confidence and trusting your “feel” when applying the techniques in different situations. Thank you both for giving me a fantastic welcome to Val Thorens! I can’t recommend this course enough and only wished that I have more days with them. Well done Prosneige!
