I just spent a great week skiing in La Plagne where I had 5 days of group lessons with Daniel. He was an amazing instructor who helped me further develop my skiing abilities on many different slopes and under varied conditions and he knew the area very well. He is fun too! At the same time my kids were in classes with Nans and Manu and loved it too, so a super week all around, thank you Oxygen!

Skiing experience: First time skier (23 years old). Lessons used: 6x3 hour group lessons in the morning (incl. additional 2 hours on the first day). Highlights: Alberto was an excellent ski instructor and helped me to progress from falling over on every green run to successfully completing red runs by the end of the week. He was very knowledge, patient and most importantly he was very fun to spend time with over the week. I thoroughly enjoyed my time skiing and I would definitely recommend going to the Oxygene Ski School if you are a first time skier and are looking for an fun, enjoyable environment whilst also improving your skiing ability.

Skiwithease really was so easy to deal from the initial booking as Lorna responded very quickly with clear communications & then they helped me ski easily! I had an absolute ball with Miha yesterday - made my holiday (& birthday!)! He had so much patience, improved my confidence massively & his teaching methods were brilliant - definitely the best ski lesson I’ve ever had! Highly recommend!

I booked ski lessons for my other half who had never been skiing before and myself who had not skied for over 10 years. The initial communication was quick and efficient and made everything so easy. Clarinda was prompt with any response and explain any questions I had. A friend recommended Sweet Snowsports and I am so glad they did as the whole holiday was made complete by having the right instructor who knew the area and immediately understood the levels we were at. Les taught Sunny (my Fiance) so brilliantly and I am so grateful! His calm and patience ensured that by the end of our trip she could ski confidently. It really made our trip. Thank you so much Les and Sweet Snowsports looking forward to seeing you again!

This is the first year we have taken our 4 & 5 year old skiiing as a family in Flaine. Virginie whom we emailed to book everything with was fantastic from prompt emails, clear booking forms and general reassurance emails to me before we came. A lovely friendly lady in person too! Then upon arrival I had a private instructor 'Michele' for a few hours as a 'refresher' as I haven't skied in 10 years who was extremely calm and patient with me. Gave me back my confidence. Also we didnt stop so really got my monies worth. My two children had 'Seb' who was happy, calm, patient (unlike some instructors we seen) and the kids loved him! He understood my children's needs and that my son was of a better ability than my daughter so tried to take him down larger slopes and because of him it brought a tear to my eye watching my children ski for the first time, and now want to come back again! It may of been because we went out of term time (yep tut tut) but they only had 4 in their ski club so almost private tuition which was ace. A break mid way through with a snack and a drink and toilet stops. Cant fault it.
