The last morning for Craig’s team with epic conditions! 😁❄️⛷️☀️#TheSnowBASE #courchevel1850❄️ #skiinstructor #britishskischool

Winter 2024/25 has begun! We are back in the 3Valleys and excitingly also in Champery. We want to help make your time in the mountains epic!

Nothing better than fresh tracks on a bluebird day!!

@foliedoucemeribel is an absolute institution of Apres Ski. This is the stage in Meribel. Nowhere better on a sunny afternoon!

We are proud to work with our partners who are good enough to help us with the kit we need. @ziener_sports are the best gloves EVER!!

Matt is a bit of an all rounder. Skier, snowboarder and uphiller! If you want to explore Courchevel with some skinning - Matt’s the guy for the job!

Mike - k44rve is based in Meribel and you can probably guess… he works for HEAD as well.

Summer just means we have to adapt and improvise … it’s maybe not a mountain! But it’s great to be able to teach our clients all year round!

Meribel is the heart of the 3 Valleys. Craig has lived here full@time for nearly 20 years!

This is our office… we get to work here day in and day out. It’s a tough gig but we are very brave!!

There’s not much to say about this… except when you ski with us - the laughs are guaranteed!!

This is @ottawaym470 he’s a skier and a snowboarder who lives in Courchevel and loves his time all over the mountain!

Mike is based in the Three Valleys - here he is last season coaching with the RAF race team at the British Military Interservices Championships.

@val_thorens is one of the many resorts we are proud to work from! Book your SnowBASE instructor for your holiday to Val Thorens for 2024/25

This is the uniforms our Meribel boys will be wearing next season! @ziener_sports are experts in team wear and this eco friendly suit is ideal for what we need!

Mar 2023 • Family

We had a fantastic experience skiing for 5 days with our instructor Mike! My 11 year old son had never skied before but was totally confident on skis and able to really enjoy himself within a day or two. I had not skied for 15 years after a knee injury and was nervous about taking it up again but I felt in very safe hands with Mike and I soon regained my confidence and thoroughly enjoyed myself. His approach was a perfect balance of humour and professionalism that made the whole experience excel all our expectations. I can highly recommend this outfit and have already booked in for next year!
