Children like to challenge themselves in different ways, and our esf instructors support this.

Building confidence and friendships on the slopes
Group lessons not only help with perfecting the techniques of skiing but also allow your child to interact with other young skiers and create new friendships.
In the early stages of learning to ski, it can feel challenging and unfamiliar, but our esf instructors keep lessons fun and encourage children so they stay motivated to learn. If your child would benefit from individual attention, you can also book private ski lessons for children.

Typical esf lesson structures
Group Lessons
Group lessons are the ideal way to learn and improve your skiing or winter sport discipline. You will join a group with other skiers of the same or similar level and take to the slopes of your chosen resort. Group lessons are suitable for all levels and standards.
Our esf instructors ensure that all participants receive the same attention during group lessons. Group lessons are offered in all disciplines such as skiing, snowboarding, off-piste, hiking, Nordic and competition. As a collective, each esf group lesson is different and reinforces everyone's involvement, in a friendly, relaxed and sporty atmosphere.
