If you’re looking for a ski school where learning is both effective and enjoyable, ESF Villard-sur-Doron is the perfect place! During our stay in Les Saisies, we had the chance to take lessons with Laurent, an outstanding instructor. His teaching method, patience, and expertise helped us quickly gain confidence on the slopes. Whether we wanted to refine our technique or just feel more at ease on skis, he adapted his guidance to our level and made the experience both fun and motivating.
While we were improving on the slopes under Laurent’s expert guidance, our son took part in children’s group lessons with Florent. From the very first day, we were impressed by Florent’s kindness and energy. He immediately won over the kids, giving them a love for skiing while ensuring steady progress at their own pace. Every session struck the perfect balance between fun and learning, and watching our son advance so quickly on the snow was a true joy!
What stood out most at ESF Villard-sur-Doron was the exceptional quality of instruction. The instructors are not only skilled, but truly passionate and committed to helping each student grow, whether adult or child. The lessons are well-organized, the atmosphere is friendly, and it’s clear that everything is designed to give each skier the best possible experience.
In addition to the great instruction, we appreciated the school’s prime location—with direct access to well-maintained slopes suitable for all levels. The staff were welcoming, always available to answer questions, and ready to give advice on which pistes were best depending on the day’s conditions.
In short, our time at ESF Villard-sur-Doron was a memorable adventure, and we highly recommend this school to anyone looking to learn or improve their skiing in the best conditions. A huge thank you to Laurent and Florent, and to the whole team for their professionalism and enthusiasm. We left with incredible memories—and already can’t wait to return next winter to keep progressing!
