Intermediate All Mountain Ski Courses
DISCOVER OFF PISTE - A WHOLE NEW DIMENSION TO SKIING.

Off piste ski courses for intermediate skiers in Chamonix, France.

intermediate ski courses

An introduction to off piste skiing course for intermediate level skiers. This course is ideal for skiers of levels 3 – 4 using this level finder.

All ski courses are delivered by top level international ski instructor, Mark Gear.

Looking to learn to ski off-piste, away from the crowds? This ski course is designed to suit intermediate level skiers who are looking to learn off-piste skiing. Before attending this course, you should already be a confident intermediate level skier on the groomed runs, able to ski with parallel turns on red runs and some of the easier black runs.

The first part of the ski course will focus on piste skiing, improving your technique on the groomed runs to lay foundations that will set the scene for an introduction to off-piste skiing.

During this course, your skiing will develop in a versatile and natural way that will enable you to start skiing off-piste. With some nice snow conditions and a few key tips, it’s amazing how easy off-piste skiing can be.

This course typically involves around 50% off-piste skiing time and 50% on piste skiing (conditions may affect this).

Understand and develop the most up-to-date skiing techniques and free-skiing tactics. You will receive a personalised ski coaching approach with helpful, video feedback in a small group of 6 skiers maximum.
