Develop your Skiing

On our intermediate skiing courses, you’ll spend six hours each day with our team, led by local instructors who will help you assess your current skills and compare them to those of an ideal skier. With small, personalized groups, you’ll receive expert instruction tailored to your needs, focusing on building a strong foundation before introducing new skills and techniques to enhance your performance.

Throughout the week, you’ll engage in various aspects of performance and goal setting, helping you understand where you’re now and establish achievable goals. You’ll work on building balance through the effective use of your ankles, knees, and hips, and gain insights into steering movements—what makes a ski turn and what you can control.

The course works on skiing dynamically and helps you identify performance indicators and training techniques to improve your skiing. Timing and coordination will also be crucial as you learn when and why to use these skills, all under the guidance of expert instructors dedicated to your growth and success.

Tignes

Tignes, part of the Espace Killy ski area, is renowned for its varied and extensive pistes. The resort’s unique blend of amazing skiing, reliable snow conditions, and breathtaking views make it an incredible base for any ski course.

The wide range of blue and red pistes provides a great base to build foundational skills and let the skis run as we increase the speed during the week. Pistes like the Palafour offer a great mix of steeper pitches into flatter sections, perfect for working on carving. Blacks like Johan Clarey let you test your skills on steeper pitches.

The course doesn’t include accommodation, but Tignes offers a wide range of options, from budget-friendly apartments to luxury chalets. So, you can choose the type of accommodation that suits your needs and budget. However, unless you have a car, we don’t suggest staying in Tignes les Brevieres.

Courchevel

Courchevel, part of the Three Valleys ski area, is renowned for its pristine pistes. Thanks to its north-facing slopes, the snow here stays in great condition for longer, offering you incredible snow despite its lower altitude. The resort’s state-of-the-art lift system allows for quick uplifts, ensuring you can make the most of your time on the mountain.

The wide variety of perfectly maintained blue and red pistes make a dream training location for piste performance skiing. Runs like Biollay are incredible no matter how experienced you are as a skier. With a series of rollers it allows you to experiment with letting the skis run.

Accommodation in Courchevel 1650 and 1850 can be expensive, but if you want to manage costs, there are some cheaper options in Le Praz, La Tania, St Bon, and Bozel.
