Ski Gaps for Grownups
You will be in small private groups of between two to four people with top qualified ski teachers, instructing you to ski more efficiently. They will be continually working on improving your technique whilst discovering Courchevel and the neighbouring resorts.
Each day we will take small groups (we will make sure the slightly less confident members don’t mix with the wilder ones) to explore Val d’Isere, Tignes, Les Arcs, La Plagne, Pralongnon, Champagny and weather permitting, venture over to Italy.
During the day we can introduce you to different aspects of mountain life such as avalanche safety, piste navigation and restaurants! You are allowed to be by yourselves for lunch, providing you don’t get lost!
In the evenings, your performance during the day (particularly after lunch!) will be witnessed by all, on video, which is used as a constructive aid to develop your skiing. Advice is available to you on equipment, ski maintenance and correct boot fitting. We may also discuss the importance of sensible eating and drinking but we certainly do not intend to put this into practice.

We use video each day to monitor and encourage progress. We give clients the opportunity to try other snow sports for fun and to improve their balance, all equipment hire is inclusive. The touring from resort to resort is not necessarily compulsory, you may also like to bring your own group and let us organize a course of your own design.

Clients will be met by prior arrangement at one of the airports of Chambery or Lyon. Having arrived at Fontanil, one of the small hamlets of Courchevel, equipment will be sorted out, ski passes distributed and everyone given a well earned drink and dinner.
The first day skiing will be spent in Courchevel to assess the levels within the groups followed by a gentle ski and tour of the area to help everyone feel at ease. Each evening we will review the progress made on video and discuss the itinerary for the following day taking into account the general standard and stamina of the groups. We shall also introduce different topics of life within the resort such as avalanche safety and give advice about ski maintenance or any other aspect of skiing that may interest the groups.
The idea of skiing in different areas every day is for intermediate to advanced skiers to get miles under their feet. Too much concentrated instruction at these levels may be confusing, keeping on the move with helpful tips, helps consolidate different techniques. The ever changing scenery adds to the enjoyment and sense of accomplishment at the end of the day.
