Course info

The course will be running continuously from Monday to Friday. The courses are designed to build and develop skill and confidence, to enable people to ski all terrains including Moguls, Steeps, Variables, Powder and how to Carve effectively on piste.

Skills are developed by practicing specific exercises that benefit the main topics. Progressively, the new skills are tested in suitable terrains to build confidence. Each skier is also looked at from an individual point of view to help understand their strengths and improve upon their weaknesses. The January courses are an ideal way to enjoy skiing in Verbier. The slopes are quiet, there are great deals on accommodation and typically this is the coldest month with fantastic snow conditions.

We ski each day from 10am until 3pm and take a lunch break at approximately 12.30pm. We will be filming regularly and doing video analysis throughout the week. The videos will be reviewed and analysed most days at convenient times that don’t interfere with skiing.

The groups are a maximum of 4 per instructor.

The course is suitable for Academy levels 1-6 on our rating scale. If you’re not sure of your level please have a look at the videos here.

Once you get to Geneva airport you can get to Verbier by Train (www.sbb.ch) or if preferred there are numerous transfer companies that offer the route such as Alpybus or Alpine express.

If you’re looking to get to resort in a more environmentally friendly way or just don’t like flying; the train journey from London is really straightforward and a pleasure to experience.
