A big thank you to Giacomo for his good humour, his availability and this great week of snowboarding from 14/02 to 21/02. The progress was very enjoyable, personalised and always in a good mood. The ESI team is welcoming, caring and professional. We recommend it 200%! See you soon!

Florent, my snowshoe instructor is great! He adapts to his audience, kind and open-minded!

It was my first snowshoe outing, I was a bit scared but he encouraged us with kindness and motivation! He kindly offered us tea halfway along the route and... how lovely it is to enjoy a hot tea on "your" Everest! For the novice I was, it was high! So "my" Everest of the day! I'll remember "The higher it is, the more beautiful it is!" Thanks Florent for these lovely walks! When I come back to Valloire, I hope it will be with you again! :)

Thanks to Titus, a very kind teacher with a great sense of humour. My son passed his Blue Mouse with him over the course of the week. Eliot was happy to go to his lesson. Just one word: THANK YOU!

Cindy | Visited in February 2025

An extraordinary school for learning and improving at skiing and snowboarding. The instructors are caring, great teachers and skilled! A very special mention to Camille from Cléia, Giacomo from Romain and "master Chris" from Julie, and of course the director Brieuc, who didn't hesitate to get personally involved so that everyone could progress in their own way! Thank you. See you next year 🤗.

GAMORY Family

A great experience on every level, starting with the reception team: thank you for your smiles, your good humour and your top-notch organisation! My daughter had a wonderful week with Camille, an instructor who combines theory and play in a way perfectly suited to children, and who is always available for parents. Thanks also to Will for introducing me to snowboarding: a super cool, patient and professional teacher – in 2 hours I had mastered turns. To sum up, with ESI you'll find quality lessons and committed instructors who don't put you under pressure, for maximum fun!! Thanks, we'll definitely be back!
