What is the number of participants per group?

In the Snow Garden, groups are limited to 5 children per instructor. For group lessons, the maximum is set at 8 in order to guarantee a high level of quality of teaching. During high season, classes can reach a maximum of 10 children.

In which level should we register the children?

If your child has followed the Swiss Snow League and has received the grade "ready for the next level" please register for the next level. If in doubt, communicate this to our instructors. We will carry out a test at the beginning of the week in order to homogenize the levels as much as possible. If your child has not yet followed the Swiss Snow League, you can see the different levels here.

What happens if there are not 4 participants in a group lesson?

The lesson is then similar to a private lesson and ESS reserves the right to reduce the duration of the lesson per day or offer you an alternative of a semi-private lessons.

Is the ski lift pass included in the price of the lessons?

The lift pass is not included in the price of the lesson and each participant must have a valid ticket.

The lift pass for the Snow garden is included in the price of the lesson. A special ski pass is available for the Snowli and Le Géant ski lifts for the P'tits Cracks.

What equipment is needed?

The basic equipment required includes skis, boots and poles. Helmet, appropriate goggles and warm gloves/mittens are mandatory for all children's lessons. Dress your children according to the weather of the day and please don't forget the sun cream and lip balm!

In the Snow Garden and in Blue Prince/cess, children ski without poles. From the Blue King level upwards poles are required for the lessons. If in doubt, check with the Instructor according to his program.

Is the material included in the price of the lesson?

The material is not included in the lesson price. Our partner store JJ Sport Morgins and their staff will be happy to advise you. They can offer you a discount rate on the daily/weekly rental on the presentation of a lesson ticket from the Ski and Snowboard School.
