(What is included/excluded will depend on individual arrangements to suit you. Size of party is anything from one, to whatever you require with a maximum of six in any one learning group. Length of coaching is variable, but usually it is all day for private groups.)
Booking Status  
All Dates Here's how our courses work: PLEASE CHECK THE "DETAIL" TO THE RIGHT, TO SEE PRECISELY WHAT I AM/AM NOT PROMISING YOU. The maximum number of folk on the week is eight. I will never work with more than five at a time. So, depending on the numbers and the relative skill levels, there may be either one or two three-hour skiing sessions in the day. In this way it's possible to train for both on- and off-piste skiing, or to train for different levels of ability during the same week. The system has now been in operation for many years and works well. You get virtually personal tuition, and still have time to cement what you have learned with some personal skiing.Group dynamics make this more effective believe it or not, than one-to-one coaching. In the evenings you can attend short seminars on ski performance, sport psychology, and other related issues. And/or go to the bar! All locations £0.00 Just the training. Click on the "Details" column to the right for specific information about bookings, accommodation etc etc.

Jan 3rd (Sunday) 2010 - Jan 10th (Sunday) 2010 [These are the days we TRAVEL] Suitable for ALL ski levels (click on "check your ski level", on the left of our web pages). There'll be a course in the morning and another in the afternoon, to suit the skill levels of the group. These could be "Personal Performance", "Women-only", "Ski Beyond" or even perhaps Off-Piste. It all depends on the skill of, and choices of the group. Baqueira, Catalan Pyrenees. £290.00 This is the "course only" price. Last season, including accommodation, flight, airport connection and lift pass, the other costs came to about £700 because of currency movements. As usual, everyone is welcome to pre-prandial technical talks or not. They'll be available, and it's your choice.

16th January 2010 (Saturday) to 23rd January 2010 (Saturday) 2009 [These are the days we TRAVEL] Up to two courses running.One am, one pm. A day may be allocated to a whole day off-piste trip such as the Vallee Blanche. Personal Performance for levels 3 upwards plus. If appropriate, "Ski Beyond" for off-piste familiarisation and training. Optional guided off-piste trips such as Vallee Blanche if it's open; or boundless other options of hugely varied levels of challenge; pretty easy to damn near lethal! Chamonix, France £290.00 Course only quoted. Guide costs are in addition. We've got into the habit of staying in the deliciously faded grandeur of what is now only the two-star Hotel Richemond in the centre of Chamonix. It must have been classy, it was the local Gestapo HQ apparently! But of course you can make your own choice. An additional optional evening course is included in the course cost, like all our weeks - please see "details".

Saturday Jan 30 to Saturday Feb 6th [ These are the days we TRAVEL] Two courses can run during the week, depending on members' needs. Certainly a Personal Performance Course for ability levels 2 through 6. (Or indeed two such). OR Possibly a women's only course if numbers justify. OR a "Ski Beyond" course for folk who are already good parallel skiers. The courses which develop will simply be geared very closely to the needs of the pupil group at the time. Baqueira, Catalan Pyrenees. £290.00 This is the "course only" price. Last season, with accommodation, flight, airport connection and lift pass, the TOTAL cost (INCLUDING the course) was about £700 An additional optional evening course is included - please see "details".
