 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hello,
Have a friend going to La Rosiere. Two adults, two children. She is looking for a ski school and one of her sons needs snowboarding lessons.
Any recommendations?
Thanks

Depends whether they want just lessons or lessons plus childcare.
We used ESF les eucharts. Lessons were very good for the 6 yr old but very poor for the 3 yr old. She was in a large group of mainly french children even though we booked in the "lessons in english" slot in school holidays. We also booked the children into the lunch club and they enjoyed that.
There is an independent ski school called evolution 2 who offer lesson plus lunch option. I think if we were going again I'd give them a try instead of ESF.
If either child needs the afternoon creche option ESF would be better for that as evo 2 only offer lesson plus lunch.

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

Evo2 and ESF are both considered quite highly and generally have good reputations regards child tuition and speaking English - notwithstanding the above comment. I've personally had experience of both and, on balance, preferred Evo2.

We used Evo2 2-3 years ago for private lessons for our 2 boys (7 and 9 at the time) and weren't disappointed.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

kosciosco, go to www.larosiere.net and click on ski schools for a complete list of all the schools, my personal preference would be for ESF mainly because they have the largest team in the village In busy times EVO2 will use ESF instructers anyway.

Hi
We went to La Rosiere Easter last year with a mixed group. All those that had lessons had group lessons with ESF:
- two 8 year olds in a junior group
- a 13 and 14 year old in an intermediate group with adults
- three adult beginners
All of them had a good time and developed well.
ESF were also recommended by the guide we used for a day trip to La Thuile.
However, I have also heard good things about Evolution 2.
Hope this helps
Jools
