Premier Alpine Centre is conveniently located at the bottom of the funicular that takes you straight up to the main Nendaz gondola Tracouet. If you opt for the storage option, your ski days are very easy just coming off the gondola or skiing down, straight into the shop and putting your street shoes on, leaving your ski gear there overnight. The staff are very friendly, and they were very helpful in fitting boots for my children and getting all of our skis. There is also a lot of ski clothing and kit onsite in case you have forgotten anything at home or if your little one has lost a glove on the slopes. We highly recommend this ski rental shop for anyone skiing in Nendaz.

Customer service is excellent. They are quick to respond, efficient and flexible (a rarity among the various ski schools that we have used in Switzerland and France). Ski instructor has been very professional, able to teach new skills to a group of 8-yr old girls while still making it a fun vacation. Instructor was also able to teach my daughter how to overcome her fear of steeper slopes.

Returned last week - my 13 yr old son had a great time with AlpineMojo in Nendaz. Sega was extremely flexible and accommodating in our requests, and even met and chaperoned my son from the bottom of the Tracouet lift in Nendaz to the lesson meeting point as it happened to be in Siviez that week. She was flexible in giving us a choice every day of 2 places my son could be dropped off, depending on where he was going to ski with his father in the afternoon. Sega was also great at offering advice to dad about the best places to snowboard each day depending on what the weather was doing - Sega is also champion snowboarder as well as skier. She even kept in touch with me by phone the night before the first lesson (and half way during the week), to make sure we were ok and happy. My son's instructor Jazzy was brilliant too and my son felt he learnt loads (especially about how to deal with moghuls which Jazzy is specialised at). On the last day he was even treated to having 2 instructors (Jazzy & Oli), as two groups had combined on the last day due to some of the children in the 2 groups not being there for the full week - so they combined into one group of 4 children, with Oli at the front and Jazzy at the back. Amazing personal service, better than we have experienced anywhere else - we would definitely use again. Thank you so much AlpineMojo !

We booked a full-day private lesson for each of our sons (ages 13 and 9) who are both strong skiers. William had the task of engaging an energetic 9 year old and had an electric personality to match. Our some wanted to go back every day. Tom was paired with our 13 year old with the objective of making a strong skier even stronger. He achieved that end plus our son had a blast in the process. Both instructors were top notch skiers with engaging personalities and teaching styles that created an atmosphere of growth in skills and great fun! They showed the boys parts of the mountain I simply could not reach with them from a skill perspective. Both boys came back absolutely thrilled with their day, having learned plethora of new skills and were completely tired! Mission accomplished. We have skiied all throughout the European Alps, the Rocky Mountains (US and Canada) and the East Coast of the US and have had our sons in many ski schools. European Snowsport Nendaz is the best experience we've had in almost a decade. We highly recomment the school and our instructors, William and Tom.

For my wife and I this was our first skiing although my son could ski. Whilst my son went off on his own we had a lesson with Harvey in the morning. In only a couple of hours we were off the nursery slopes on to a blue run which was a surprise but enjoyable. The day we were there was a few days after fresh snow although they can make their own and weather was clear and warm. They seem to have a lot of different runs and possible to ski to other resorts within the 4 valleys for experienced skiers. We hired equipment from Gaby Sports just across the road from the ticket office and gondolas. We were there on a Friday and it was reasonably quiet in the morning but by lunchtime the schools had finished and ski school had started.
