Main information
What to expect
The 4 Valleys is a ski area renowned for its many legendary slopes that are even for the most experienced skiers a tough challenge. By attending a private ski lesson for adults in Siviez or Nendaz with us, you take the necessary steps to tackle slopes such as Mont Fort or Chassoure with assurance and control.
Our main goal is to provide you with personalized teaching to gain confidence and progress quickly, no matter what your level. Our instructors are passionate about skiing and know the resort like the back of their hand. They are there to pass on their enthusiasm and know-how to you by giving you targeted advice. After defining your needs and desires together, we design the content of your lesson. Your instructor can also help you discover the 4 Valleys differently by showing you their favourite places and some off-piste areas unknown to the public.

The ski instructor was very dedicated. For me personally, it was a good introduction, but not the ideal match. Therefore, I decided against it.

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.
