“Excellent Ski Lesson with Beatrice”
My friend and I did two mornings of ski lessons with Beatrice (we are both intermediate skiers) – Beatrice was an excellent tutor and we both improved vastly over the 6 hours. Also had a great time whilst doing it. I would highly recommend Oxygene if you are looking for lessons.

"I'M NOT SURE I NEED SKI LESSONS"
Ski lessons are an investment in yourself and your holiday experience. They have the potential to turn your ski holiday into something extraordinary, in which you achieve something tangible, explore new horizons and experience sensations on snow that you have never felt before.
"GROUP LESSONS ARE JUST FOR KIDS"
"GROUP LESSONS ARE JUST FOR KIDS"
Group lessons work well for adults as well as children. They are cost-effective, sociable and fun. Benefit from the experience of your instructor and progress as a group learning from each other’s mistakes. You’re sure to have a laugh and improve your skiing or snowboarding at the same time.

"CAN MY FRIENDS CAN TEACH ME TO SKI?"
If your friend or partner has an in-depth technical knowledge of skiing/snowboarding, endless patience, knows the right slopes for your level, can correct any errors you may make, will build your confidence and wants to spend their holiday on the beginner slopes then yes. If not, then it’s probably best to book some lessons.
"SKI LESSONS ARE EXPENSIVE"
"SKI LESSONS ARE EXPENSIVE"
Ski lesson prices vary resort to resort (depending on the cost of living in those resorts). They also depend on the ski school (and how much they pay their instructors), by the number of participants in a group and any ‘extras’ that are included such as medals, safety equipment, private teaching spaces etc.
