My family and I had two days of lessons booked through The Snow School in Meribel this year. My two boys, 8 & 6, had never skied before and were instructed by Jamie. He was patient, encouraging and most importantly taught them in a fun way at a level relevant to them. On the afternoon of day 2 they were skiing on green runs with confidence and enthusiasm that was a pleasure to watch. My wife and I had only skied once, the year before. We were instructed by James who was extremely knowledgeable and whose teaching style is relaxed, easy to understand and amazingly effective. In two days I have improved immeasurably, both technique and in confidence, thanks to his approach and understanding. I would recommend The Snow School totally. They were flexible around our timings, approachable and nothing was too much trouble.
