A group lesson is a course in a group spread over the week in half days (mornings or afternoons) or full day generally over 5 or 6 days. In low season it is possible to join a group lesson for a few sessions only.
Morning group lessons take place from 9am to 12pm. Afternoon group lessons take place from 2 to 4.30 p.m. from December to the end of January and from 2 to 5 p.m. from February until the end of the season. Group lessons during the day are a combination of morning and afternoon lessons. There may be some variations according to the resorts, do not hesitate to ask us.
A private lesson is a lesson in which you have booked an instructor for yourself, your family, your group of friends, etc. It is your instructor and your lesson. You decide on its duration, its content, the number of sessions per week, the meeting place, etc. It's a tailor-made course!
Of course he can. In private lessons the instructor will pick you up at the skiroom of your hotel if your ski level allows it.
The private lesson allows a faster technical progress and is totally adapted to your desires and needs. The group lesson, on the other hand, allows you to make good progress during the week thanks to the sequence of sessions in a group atmosphere at a lower rate than in a private lesson.
You can consult the Prosneige website which provides videos to help you define your level or children's level. If this is not sufficient, please do not hesitate to call our booking office who will be happy to help you. In any case, so that the level of skiing is not too much of a concern for you, please know that our instructors always make sure the first lesson that our students are in the right group and make changes if necessary to optimise progression.
Simply by consulting the guidelines on the Prosneige website or by calling us for further assistance. We are used to advising our students and thanks to our experience, you will quickly find the group lesson in which to enrol.

No worries! Our ski and snowboard instructors are used to dealing with this kind of situation. You will be immediately directed to the group corresponding to your level, guaranteeing you a good progression throughout the week.
Of course you can. Prosneige's goal is for you to have fun while you progress. If your group is too slow then you will pass 2 levels at once. Conversely, if you feel you are having difficulty and you are afraid to come to class, then you will join a class that is more adapted to optimize your progress.
No. At Prosneige we prefer continuous assessment. Our philosophy is to transmit the practice of skiing through fun and taking an exam at the end of the week goes against this principle. We're here to have fun, to progress, to enjoy ourselves, and it's over the whole week that the instructor will decide which level has validated his student. There is no risk of ending the holidays with stress and a false mark!
Of course! There are equivalencies between all ski schools
In ski, group lessons are limited to 10 in Les Menuires and Val Thorens and 6 in Méribel and Val d'Isère. Our snowboard group lessons are limited to 6 in all resorts.
At the kindergarten the children are between 3 and 4 years old. In the children's group lessons the participants are between 5 and 13 years old. From the age of 13, we move on to group classes for teenagers and adults. We always try to harmonize the age groups for the comfort of all.
Absolutely! Each child enrolled in a group lesson will leave with his or her medal. And at Prosneige, they are really beautiful.
There are imperfections to erase, habits to correct, new skis to test with confidence but also new practices to discover: off-piste, freestyle, telemark, ski touring, etc... There are a multitude of reasons to keep taking lessons. Group lessons are also a great opportunity to spend some great skiing moments with people of your own level, with whom you can continue to ski outside of lessons who knows?
