Poster: A snowHead
|
My wife, 8 year old daughter and I are off to Tignes Le Lac for a week from 13-20 December. I'm looking for a good ski school option for my daughter. She's been skiing about 8/10 times now since the age of 3 and is a fairly competent blue/some reds skier. Normally she goes on trips I organise for loads of children. So she is normally doing lessons with her friends but this time we are going solo as a family. She'll want to ski with us but I want to get some time off for some more extreme stuff plus I know the value of instruction for her. I am looking for some ski instruction options that might motivate her to do some lessons (half days, either all week or part week). So instructors that love and specialise in lessons for kids and/or, possible, some form of 'ski camp' thing for kids. Any ideas, contacts, feedback, offers welcome.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Doesn't sound like anyone has any bright ideas on this. Just thought I'd get the thread up to the top of the list and nudge anyone out there who might have suggestions.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

StanBowles, Stewart Woodward instructs in Tignes and works for ESF, you might PM him for further info as to what's suitable. I had a private lesson with him in January which was really good.

StanBowles, My son had adventure type lessons with Evolution 2 in Tignes and they were great. He normally doesn't like lessons but really enjoyed these.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

StanBowles, I'd echo stevew's suggestion of Stewart Woodward. He taught me on a Snoworks week but I know he does teach children quite a lot and would be fun for your daughter. Try sending him a PM http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=7892 or if you look at one his posts his email address is in his signature.
If he can't help you on that week he would probably be able to suggest other options for you.

This is great. Many thanks stevew and ruthie. I'll check out these suggestions. In the meantime, if anyone else has got any experience of this, keep the suggestions coming.
