A progression designed to learn with pleasure

Les ESi children's group ski lessons allow young skiers to discover the mountains, learn the basics of skiing and progress in a friendly atmosphere. Each child joins a group suited to their age and level of skiing. This organization allows everyone to develop with students who have similar skills and to progress at their own pace.

Our vision of skiing

An adapted progression

At ESi, we firmly believe that learning to ski should above all remain a moment of pleasure. Children learn more easily when they feel confident. Our instructors therefore create a reassuring, caring and dynamic environment. The exercises are adapted to the abilities of each group. They allow them to gradually develop balance, control of the skis, turns, braking and speed management.

Groups adapted to the level of each child

To encourage regular progress, the children are divided according to their skiing level. A beginner does not have the same exercises as a child who is already comfortable on the slopes. This distribution allows the instructor to build a coherent session and to propose situations adapted to the group’s abilities.

Beginner children gradually discover the equipment and the first sensations of skiing. They learn, in particular, how to move, stop, and control their trajectory. Over the course of the sessions, they acquire the necessary basics to progress with greater autonomy on the slopes.

ESi levels

The medals

ESi group lessons are organised by levels, so that each child or teenager progresses at their own pace in a group suited to their abilities. Throughout the week, the instructor assesses what has been learnt and helps each student towards the objectives of the next level. At the end of a week-long group course (5/6 days), children and adolescents receive their ESi medal, offered by the school, to reward their progress and to value their learning on the slopes.

For more experienced skiers, group lessons help perfect technique and build confidence. Instructors can work on turns, ski steering, speed and adapting to different slopes. Depending on their level and the conditions, children also discover new playgrounds within the ski area.

The group is also a real asset. The children share their experiences, observe their peers, and progress together. This dynamic fosters exchanges and can strengthen motivation throughout the stay. Everyone advances at their own pace, without unnecessary comparisons with others.
