A ski school to help you to develop a better relationship with your ski instructor. Our small team of ski instructors know their ski resort by heat. They are part of the International Ski School (ESI) network, which has brought together ski schools for more than 40 years.
Our instructors are state-certified professionals who wish to go further in the way of transmitting their passion. For them, the key to obtain the best teaching is an attention to individual details.

Europe's highest resort offers huge off-piste possibilities; whether on skis, snowboard or ski touring. You can start from the mythical Péclet Glacier, one of the most beautiful views in the Alps, go down to Pralognan via the Gébroulaz pass, or tackle the West Face of Péclet if you are in great shape!
Off-piste skiing remains an extreme sport which involves high risks and requires a confirmed level, a good knowledge of the mountain and safety rules. This is why our off-piste guides will remind you of all the safety measures, supervise you and provide you all the necessary equipment for a responsible practice.
The ESI Ski Family offers you the opportunity to enjoy powder snow and great outdoors on several options. You can practice alone, for personalised advice and special attention.
If there are several of you, you can also request one of our instructors for your private group.
If you wish to progress in off-piste for a whole week, our group lessons invite you to improve your technique in groups of 2 to 5 confirmed skiers or snowboarders.
Would you like more traditional ski lessons?
To continue to evolve on the piste, even at an advanced level, we offer several otions. You can choose to progress in private lessons. A ski instructor is then entirely dedicated to you. Would you prefer to meet people and learn in a group? Ski Family also offers group lessons for adults !
