Main information
What to expect
With our snowboarding lessons for adults in Val Thorens, you will be able to progress quickly and practice in one of the most demanding ski areas in Europe. In no time, you will become a real sliding pro.
Our state-qualified instructors will accompany all your moves and will be able to advise you efficiently. This is made possible thanks to small groups, not exceeding 8 snowboarders maximum. The instructor can provide each student with precise follow-up. In addition, you will find yourself with people of a similar level, so you will receive teaching adapted to your needs. We guarantee you real progress at the end of the training. We have four different level groups, each with specific objectives to achieve during the week: to be able to make turns, to master the switch, to do some tricks, to be introduced to the snow park, etc.

Had a fantastic week thanks to Sam (Samuel). Neither of us had any snowboarding experience, and after a week we could ski down the red run on our own. We never expected that. Lots of personal attention and always time for a question or a chat. Highly recommended!
