Highly recommended! Warm and friendly welcome. The team went out of their way to find last-minute classes for the children. Special mention to Guillaume for his kindness and humor; the children loved their private lessons! They can't wait to see him again next year.

A fantastic experience with ESI La Mongie! Our daughter Louise took a week of snowboarding lessons with Marveen and loved it. He is a very patient, motivating, and effective instructor; he immediately puts you at ease and adapts perfectly to each student's level. Thanks to his clear advice and good humor, she improved rapidly while having a great time on the slopes. I recommend % this school 100%, and especially Marveen, for learning or improving snowboarding in a friendly atmosphere! She already has a strong desire to take more lessons next year! Thank you very much.

I highly recommend this ski school where the children are divided into small groups, which greatly facilitates learning! Furthermore, our daughter had an exceptional instructor! A huge thank you to Miguel, who patiently and kindly shared his passion for skiing with our children. Lise will have wonderful memories of her first year of skiing lessons! ⛷️
