Nordic Snow Garden
Nordic Snow Garden: the first ski lessons from 2 and a half years old
The first experiences on skis play an essential role in discovering Nordic activities. At the ESi, we offer a Nordic Snow Garden adapted for young children. This space allows them to discover snow, equipment and the first sensations of skiing in a reassuring environment.
games and development
The objective is first and foremost to give the child confidence and develop their desire to ski. The sessions follow a progressive, playful and age-appropriate pedagogy. Through games, children work on their balance, coordination and their first movements on the snow.
Where can I find Nordic snow gardens and Nordic skiing courses for little ones?

La Mongie
ESI Grand Tourmalet La MongieFrom 49 €
Discovering snow sliding in an environment suited to young children with a very small group ratio: 6 children per instructor.
The goal: to have fun!
At this age, performance is not a priority. The main thing remains giving confidence to the child and developing his/her desire to practice Nordic skiing. The sessions therefore offer a playful, progressive approach adapted to the youngest children. Through games, children discover their equipment, work on their balance and learn to move on the snow.
A ski learning program designed for little ones
From 2 and a half years old, children discover a new environment. Snow, skis, ski boots and a helmet are all new sensations to get used to. ESi instructors therefore take the time to familiarise each child with this world before starting the first gliding exercises.
The activities are designed to respect the pace and attention span of young children. The sessions alternate between games, movement on the snow, and small sliding situations. This approach allows for the natural development of balance, coordination, and the first sensations associated with skiing.
Play is a real teaching tool. It lets children progress without feeling they are doing a technical exercise. By copying movements, following courses or taking on small age-appropriate challenges, they gradually develop their first skills on skis.
