PRIVATE SKI LESSONS

The learning or development process is focused on your skills.
It focuses on what you want to achieve and what you want to improve.

Pleasure and creativity are our leitmotivs, as is the desire to help you discover the magic of the mountains.

Depending on your wishes and your level, choose the course that suits you best to improve your style and technique. There's a wide range of options to choose from, depending on your equipment and your personal preferences. Don't hesitate to send us an e-mail to express your wishes, and we'll look together at what we can offer you.

Depending on schedules, 75-minute sessions or 150-minute combos are possible, see 5 x 75-minute packages.

Private lessons take place every day, whatever the weather (remember when you were a child and braved bad weather on the snow).

SKI DIFFERENTLY?

Would you like to ....

Increase your ease of movement on all types of terrain?

Are you comfortable on your skis and at ease on moderately steep slopes? The emphasis is on having fun and knowing how to move.

For narrower, more difficult sections, you'll use parallel turns, which you'll learn to master with our advice, depending on the terrain.

Want to improve your carving technique?

You're a sporty skier. On flatter slopes, your line is already cut and you control your tempo well. On steep sections, your skis skate and you can't control your speed.

The emphasis is on different turn shapes depending on the terrain in front of you.

Developing your style in all types of snow?

You'll master all types of slopes, but your style will lose its lightness on unprepared terrain.
The emphasis is on rhythm, choice of turn and posture.

You'll learn to ski down unprepared snow and powdery terrain with a focus on safety and economy of effort.

Private lessons à la carte

Learn to ski in 3 days - Swiss Ski Schools vow to do just that

The promise made by Swiss ski instructors to their guests is not lacking in panache, as they pledge to teach them to ski in 3 days - whether the students are beginners or have decided to get back into winter sports!

To make this promise official, representatives of the Swiss Ski Schools gathered on the Rütli meadow to take the oath.

Guests benefit from ideal conditions for making their first steps on the snow, or taking up skiing again, and enjoying the fascinating world of winter sports.

With instruction from some of Switzerland's top ski instructors, we promise our guests that after just 3 days they'll be able to ski down an easy blue run with pleasure.

Participants will also receive important information on equipment and safety on the slopes.

Finally, they'll be able to explore the resort's best slopes in the company of our ski instructors, and stop off at one of our friendly mountain huts.

And below are a few photos taken in BERN, in 2015, ...a delegation from ess Grimentz/Zinal made the trip to offer you this heart as a thank you for your presence on the slopes.

#inlovewithswitzerland ... but also # merci à vous
