TOP 8 LESSONS
ESF Center Val Village: Groups limited to 8 children all levels
ESF La Daille: Groups limited to 8 children for Beginner & Flocon levels

group ski lessons

From beginner to Competition level - 8 children max

Optimum teaching conditions all season long! 

During all the winter season, we deliberately restrict our groups to 8 children per instructor.
This is because we strongly believe that small groups help our instructors providing to each child the attention he deserves regardless his ski level. This is also a guarantee that your kid will improve regularly through the week.
  • Groups are made up by age and level for better efficiency.
  • For "Beginner" and "Flocon" levels, groups are limited to 6 children max. outside school holidays.
  • Lessons are available on Saturdays only during school holidays.
  • Our ski instructors speak French & English.

Ski pass 

FOR CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 8 YO, ski pass free of charge and available for pick-up at the ski lift counter on presentation of proof of age.
Reminder for children under 8: the ski pass is compulsory for all our ski lessons.

Our instructor's advice
small group lessons
TOP8 lessons allow us, as instructors, to spend more one-to-one time with each child. In this way, we can pinpoint their difficulties and nip them in the bud right away and your child reaps all the benefits.

What is the advantage of TOP 8 classes ?
"TOP 8" classes are limited to 8 children per group. That means your child will have more time and attention from the instructor, and training will be more regular and efficient.
"TEAM RIDER" ski lessons, protective equipment required :
Helmet and back protectors
Does my child need a ski pass ?
Ski pass is not nessecary on Sunday and Monday for 1st star level. From Tuesday, a ski pass "Val d'Isere area" will be enough.
From 2nd star level, a full ski pass "Val d'Isère/Tignes"  is required from the 1st day of ski.
Does ESF ski school provide lunch ?
Lunch is not provided. Thus, if you book days group lessons, you will have to pick up your kid at the end of the morning session (12.30am) and back at 2.00 or 2.30pm for the afternoon class.
We offer lunch only for our day-courses starting from 2nd star level.
