There are several ski schools in Val d’Isere and you can arrange everything from group lessons to private instruction and off-piste guiding.

Group lessons usually start on Sunday or Monday and will typically run for 5 or 6 days on either morning, afternoon or whole-day basis. In the busy weeks, it is advisable to book well in advance for both group lessons (particularly for children).

There are English-speaking instructors in all the main ski schools and most also offer to teach in other languages but be aware that in group lessons tuition will be given predominantly in French or English.
The French Ski School (ESF) and a number of other ski schools now offer lessons for ages 3 and 4 as introductions to the sport.
