Our Ski & Snowboard Lessons

Mini'z

Limited to 5 children per class and adapted to the youngest (from 4 years old), the Little Mouse class is dedicated to the discovery of skiing.

The week begins on a stadium reserved for beginners: easy terrain that helps the children gain confidence. As soon as they know how to turn and stop, the stadium is over, we go down the green and blue trails. The children’s progress is fast and safe because the groups are limited to 5 children per instructor.

High Five

It is the course that guarantees a quality of follow-up of the skiers comparable to the private course for a lower cost. The children enjoy the company of other skiers of the same level and challenge each other in a friendly manner. Teenagers like the way we go off piste, try some freestyle moves or go trough their first slalom gates.

Good vibes guaranteed.

Neoski Crew

The teen formula. A week of great skiing, 3 hours a day, in the poles, off-piste or in the snowpark. We choose the best playground according to conditions.

We’ll pass on our passion for the mountains to your children, who’ll be eager to discover all the secret Valmo spots. All in complete safety, with specially adapted equipment supplied by Neoski School.
