Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Great. Cab are able to offer morning lessons. So many start at 11.30 so that rules them straight out and so many start Monday which is a bit useless if you are a beginner and end up wasting Sunday waiting for someone to show you how to do it

polo99......did you use these guys? My son of 20 years is coming along with us next March and is an early intermediate, just wondering if they are any good??
mini.mansell, just had a look at RTM, do the lessons start in La Tania or do you have to make your way to Courchevel/VT?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Tania is about 7 minutes away from the centre of Courchevel on a board. I am sure the RT guys will come and meet you

Another vote for RTM, very good experience with them and yes, I do believe they will come over to La Tania to meet you.

I tried both cab9 and rtm last year from La Tania and neither would run a lesson for me from La Tania. I guess it was too quiet a week or something ( late Jan). Plus I was looking for intermediate lessons rather than beginner so just not enough takers.. My only choice for snowboarding lessons from La Tania was going to be ESF, and even then there was no intermediate group lessons.
Hope you have better luck!

I thought a couple of the RTM guys actually lived in La Tania

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

the only issue I had with both RTM and Cab9 when I enquired was that the lesson started at 8.45~9 is was actually getting there in time from the place I was stopping at in Bozel

Have enquired to both RTM and Cab9 for 3rd week in March for an intermediate group lessons for my lad, will let you know of the outcome. Already had a few responses back about my wife for her group ski lessons stating it is classed as a quiet week and they may not be able to get the class size for that group, will have to suck it and see I suppose. !! ESF have not replied yet!
