Main information
What to expect
One week is all it takes in order for you to feel like you own the slopes. By choosing our adult ski lessons in Villars, you know your instructors are well-versed in the issues you are facing or will face, and then will solve them.
Adults who begin skiing and teenagers over the age of 16 years can choose this course. During the first lesson, you may discuss with the instructor what you think you could achieve by the end of it. As part of the adult ski lessons, you will work on your skiing technique with plenty of opportunities to practice, while you will enjoy this great learning experience with a bunch of like-minded skiers.
You can develop several technical elements, from snowploughing for beginners to parallel skiing and even carving if you are already more advanced. You might end your day exhausted, but full of memories. Join the crowd and step outside your comfort zone!
