This course is for people who have never skied before or may have tried it once. We get you started with the basics; build your balance, show you how to move on skis and give you the tools you need to gain control of your speed and direction! You'll be shown how to use lifts safely and what type of runs you can ski throughout your stay.

If you can already turn, head over to our Weekend Adult Group Improver or Intermediate.

For long weekenders we have the perfect course for you. Running from Fri-Sun at 0915 and lasting 2 hours per day our adult group courses could be the highlight of your trip. 

This course is for people who can make turns using a snow plough. You may have skied between 1 - 2 weeks and you can control your speed and direction on a blue run. On this course we review the foundations; your balance, your posture and how you move on the skis. We can then develop your turning by introducing some parallel skills. By the end of the course you'll have great confidence in tackling all blue runs in control and venturing on to some red runs. 

If you can already make parallel turns and ski red runs comfortably, head over to our Adult Group Course Level 5 or 6.

Challenge yourself to learn beyond what you already know. 

Meeting Point @ 0900-0915

Les Lindarets (top of the Ardent Bubble) Grab a coffee and a chat through the days goals.  

We will schedule the workshops around the conditions at the time.  Everyone will be notified the night before via whatsapp.

Max of 6 per group with multiple groups to suit experience and confidence. 

All skiers must be able to make controlled, linked parallel turns on steep red runs.

It is not about how fast you can go down a red run (until we let you on the race course!) 

We will aim to do video analysis over lunch each day so that everyone has fresh visuals to increase awareness before going back out for afternoon sessions. 

Each day will end at approx 1600 in Les Lindarets where we can enjoy a wee sundowner together. 

Accommodation option: 

We have a limited amount of spaces available at the wonderful Fat Fox on Lac Montriond. Breakfast, dinner and after-ski Yoga included!

The 4-day long (coaching only) weekend course will run from Friday to Monday with at least 5 hours of coaching per day, plus video analysis! There will be 2 groups running, one for intermediate+ and one for advanced. 

There is also the option to book this course with accommodation included.

You will be comfortable skiing most red runs but would like to improve your technique so that you can tackle changing snow conditions, steeper slopes, off-piste and bumps.

These courses are perfect for those wanting to develop their skiing on a regular basis, at the end of the course you will have a documented action plan which all PEAK coaches have access to. This means you can continue your development with any of our coaches anytime. 

Pre-requisite: 

• Ski all Red runs in parallel

• Ski non-stop for 3 hours at 2,000m+ altitude

• Had a go at skiing bumps

• Link at 3 turns together off-piste

• You can get up unaided if you fall

Unsure of your level:

If you're unsure this is the level for you, pick a camp that has another camp level running and we can move you between the camps as required. Or give us a call to discuss with a coach: +441483616522

A typical week includes: 

1. Building blocks of skiing - Where all great skiers start, we call these the building blocks. We always visit these on every course to "re-centre"
2. Video Analysis - A group session highlighting the good bits and the work on bits analysed by you with the support of your coach. 
3. Piste performance - Pushing the limits of your skis on the piste. Expect to nail carving on most runs! 
4. Off-piste - Technique, tactics and safety. One of our favourite areas of skiing (when the conditions are right)
5. Bumps - One of the most challenging areas of skiing, but so much fun to be had. We'll show you the skills! 
6. Steep terrain - How to safely ski terrain over 35 degrees, controlling your speed and line.
7. Equipment workshop - Understanding the correct set-up for you, and how to prepare your equipment to give you the best performance. 

This is subject to change depending on weather and group ability.
