Group ski lessons

Handpicked multilingual instructors for group ski and snowboard lessons

Featured in
Ski Lessons

Operating across the valley, this world-class team of ski instructors is available at all meeting points in Chamonix.

This ski school brings together a handpicked team of instructors, each with a world-class background in snowsports. Every instructor has deep expertise in their speciality - skiing or snowboarding - along with a broad knowledge of the sport overall.

Lessons arenโ€™t taught from scripts or templates. Instead, instructors adapt their teaching to your personal learning style, ensuring genuine progress in your technique and building lasting confidence on the slopes.

Group lessons are available for all ages and abilities:

  • Adult groups/shared lessons: flexible ski and snowboard sessions for one to five participants, available throughout the season. Simply book a private lesson and they convert it into a group lesson - additional participants joining earn you money back, just like a ride-share. Perfect for beginners, intermediate refreshers, confidence builders, advanced piste skills, bumps/moguls, and off-piste practice.
  • Junior groups: four-hour daily sessions during school holidays, running from one to five days. Designed for children aged six and up (younger children require prior arrangement), these lessons develop confidence and skills while making learning fun. Two levels are available:
    • Blue group: skiers learning basic parallel turns on green and easy blue runs.
    • Red group: experienced skiers refining a variety of parallel techniques on all pistes.
  • Academy groups: for juniors with top ski awards (eight or nine stars), focusing on piste performance, steeps, off-piste, bumps, and freestyle. Sessions also develop mountain awareness, safety skills, and respect for the alpine environment. Entry requires prior assessment via junior red groups or a private lesson to confirm ability level.

In addition to group sessions, the ski school also offers private lessons, off-piste guiding, specialised bumps and moguls classes, full moon ski tours, and alpine touring courses for adults. As long as youโ€™re comfortable on all pistes, youโ€™re ready to join.
