Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Hi,
Never skiied before but would love to learn.
Quite like the idea of buggering off somewhere (France?) to take a week(?) intensive course.
Any recommendations/advice?
Cheers
Simon

, welcome to
s! Many on here would recommend you to get yourself to Les Deux Alpes and our very own
easiski
aka Charlotte Swift. She'll have you doing brilliantly within a week, by all accounts. Have a look at her website -
www.easiski.com.
Good luck with your venture, you should find loads of useful information on here.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

, Welcome to
. I learnt the intensive way ...private lessons every day for 10 days ( and almost every day thereafterer for the next 10). Still learning though a few 'weeks' later, goes with the sport !
Lots of discussion here about private v group v self-taught .... but no doubt that one instructor intensive for a week ( 1 1/2 to 2 hours per day) is the best option imho ... also go outside peak season so that you can practice in relative 'calm'.
France would be my choice ... Les Gets, but then again L2A has
