SUMMER SKIING AT THE WSSA 2026

Our Summer Ski Courses will once again be taking place in the stunning alpine village of Cervinia, Italy, throughout July and August 2026
While the main focus of our summer programme is, of course, skiing, don’t underestimate the magic of summertime in the Alps.
We start early and wrap up on the slopes by 1 PM, leaving your afternoons free to enjoy everything this beautiful region offers.

The Plateau Rosa Glacier offers a world-class training ground for anyone looking to elevate their skiing. Our Academy coaches use a unique approach that combines technique, biomechanics, and equipment analysis to help you fix your skiing issues and reach your next level.

Our base in Cervinia sits beneath the majestic Cervin (yes, that’s the Matterhorn). Though it’s not the classic view, the Italians call it the “more artistic side”, and we couldn’t agree more. Fill your afternoons with hiking, biking, or just chilling out in the local cafes . .
Expect warm daytime temperatures in the mid to high 20s (°C), perfect for relaxing in the sun with a book, a drink, or just your thoughts. It does cool down in the evenings, so don’t forget to pack an extra layer!

📅 COURSE DATES 📅

July 12th - 17th
July 19th - 24th
July 26th - 31st
August 2nd - 7th
August 9th - 14th
