What to check before choosing a school

  • Your real level: first day, already linking turns on green and blue runs, or polishing technique on reds and off-piste.
  • Dates: at Christmas, Easter and bank-holiday weekends groups and private instructors fill up first.
  • Meeting point and times: each school has its own, at the foot of the slopes or in the village.
  • Lessons do not include the lift pass or equipment: book them for the same days.
  • The instructor’s language, if you don’t speak the local one.
