How the day works

Start times. Mornings usually begin between 9 and 9.30, afternoons between 1 and 1.30. We are flexible — if another time suits you better, ask.

Where we meet. Wherever you like: your chalet, up the mountain, or by the lifts. If you have no preference we meet outside Mountain Air, just up from the Médran lifts. Good coffee, and 10% off your rental while you are there.

What is included. Your instructor. Lift passes, equipment hire and lunch are yours — we will happily point you at the right pass.

Not sure what level you are?

Nobody fits neatly into a box, and you do not need to get this right — your instructor will work you out in the first ten minutes. It is just a starting point.

First timeYou have never skied, or tried it once.BeginnerA few hours on a nursery slope or a snow dome. You can stop in a snowplough and turn, more or less.Low intermediateAbout a week's skiing. You can get down a blue run in control, still snowploughing, using your turns to manage your speed.IntermediateA couple of weeks in. You are heading onto steeper runs and starting to bring your skis parallel at the end of each turn. The snowplough is fading.High intermediateComfortable on steeper terrain, controlling speed with parallel turns rather than a plough. You are starting to feel the ski grip and work underneath you, and venturing off the edges of the piste.AdvancedYou understand what the shape of the ski does and can carve through most of a turn when you want to. You can vary your turn shape, hold an edge on hard snow, and you are exploring bumps and off-piste.ExpertSteep terrain and off-piste are where you go for a challenge. You know your safety equipment, you read the avalanche bulletin, and you ski with your own style rather than someone else's.

Not sure which one?

Tell us what you want out of the week and we will say honestly what we would book. If two hours is enough, we will tell you that too.
