Beginner Ski Lessons

First time skiing? 

Learning from loved ones can be quite tricky and exhausting. The best way to master skiing is with our Adult Beginner Lessons. Our esf Tignes Le Lac instructors will show you the ropes and help you nail those first turns. You'll be amazed at how quickly you progress!

You’ll be paired with an instructor who'll support you throughout the week, alongside a group of fellow beginners discovering the thrill of skiing.

Adult Ski Beginner Lessons 
Start off smoothly, with each person progressing at their own pace to master the basics and become confident on the slopes.

Each person in the group will advance at their own pace in the best conditions.

Depending on the number of participants, the group may be a mix of teens and adults, or there may be separate groups.

Adults group ski lessons are only proposed in the morning from Tignes les Brévières and Tignes les Boisses 1800.

Frequently Asked Questions
Discover our advice and useful information for stress-free holidays
WILL MY PROGRESS BE ASSESSED?
Yes. The evaluation happens during the last lesson on Friday.
DO I NEED A SKI PASS?
No, students in the Beginner Group Ski Lessons do not need a ski pass as long as they stay within the free Beginner area. If a pass becomes necessary during the week, the instructor will let you know.
how should I dress for ski lessons?
We recommend you wear:
  • A comfortable, waterproof ski jacket and trousers.
  • a pair of mittens or ski gloves
  • a helmet
  • A mask or sunglasses (attached with a cord) and a UV protection factor 3 minimum.
Don't forget your sunscreen, even if it's overcast: Tignes is at high altitude.
I've booked. Can I be sure the lesson will take place?
The lesson will take place as long as there are at least 3 students signed up. If there are fewer, we’ll offer to switch you to private lessons instead.
