Our courses are built around your own needs so you feel as if you are gaining a private lesson within a group lesson, top British ski teachers that work towards your own aspirations.

3. Is it all very serious?

No not at all, in fact we think you will find skiing in a group at your own pace and level is much more fun, rewarding and relaxing.

Of course, we have many clients that return year after year who come on their own. It is a great way to meet other like-minded skiers.

It’s a great way to get an extra week’s quality skiing before the main season starts avoiding the Christmas and New Year rush. The snow can be superb with some great winter skiing for all levels and it means you can take a break from the pre-Christmas mania in the UK.

8. What is a typical day’s skiing like on one of your courses?

Well, there is no typical day, the structure of the day may vary within the week depending on the conditions, your level and the goals you may have. For example: if we have had some fresh snow we would definitely be out skiing and learning how best to tackle these conditions. Our team of instructors are experienced skiers and teachers who aim to taylor the days activities to both the conditions, levels and goals of the group.

9. Do I have to be an expert to go on the Off Piste Performance weeks?
