Snocool
What this ski school has to say…
“In 1998, we decided to create our own ski school after realising our clients wanted smaller ski groups with a more personal touch than was on offer in many other ski schools. In our opinion a ski school has to be on a human scale. It is a guarantee of quality because each new instructor who integrates the team must be impeccable. We are pleased to see that every day Snocool instructors convey their passion with pleasure. For us the most important will always be to make your vacation a success.”
Children’s ski lessons
What we have to say…
We have been working with Snocool for many years and our clients love Snocool’s children’s group ski lessons with up to 6 kids per group and their special Kidz 4 group lessons, specifically for 4 year olds, with up to four kids per group. Morning and afternoon group lessons are available, giving you a fantastic choice to suit you and your little ones.
They also offer private lessons, off-piste guiding, snow-shoeing and heli-skiing sessions, which are available for full days or afternoons – book for 30 minutes right up to 8 hours each day, you decide!

PDS Academy
What this ski school has to say…
“We provide lessons for all ages. Group lessons for children range from 6 – 15 years old, usually running for three hours a day over five days. We only offer private lessons for children aged 3, 4 and 5 as we feel they need too much individual attention for group lessons. New for this season we are offering personal adult group lessons. These will be for three days for two hours a day and have a maximum of four people in, allowing for individual feedback. We also offer private lessons for adults. This is a popular choice for those working on confidence.”
What they have to say…
PDS Academy offer a great range of adult’s and children’s ski lessons and we have been working with their team (formerly Apex Snowsports) for the past few years, having had nothing but great feedback from our clients.
Get in touch with us and we will contact PDS Academy on your behalf, for your personalised lesson.
