I arranged 12 hours of lessons for my wife with The Snow School during a week at Meribel at the beginning of February. She is a nervous beginner who started skiing two years ago at the age of nearly 60. Congratulations to your instructor Sam who had the patience, sensitivity and enthusiasm to make my wife's week at a very good experience (I suspect his youthful good looks probably also helped). I would not hesitate to recommend The Ski School; quality instruction at value- for- money prices from very competent instructors. We will book again next time we are in the Three Valleys. DM, Taunton
