Group Ski Lessons

Exceptional group ski & snowboard tuition for all

featured in Ski lessons Updated 8 July 2022

Oxygene’s children group lessons are based on making learning to ski fun and are limited to 6 children per group for the best learning experience.

Children's Group Lessons

Oxygene fills children’s group lessons with fun and engaging games and activities to encourage a positive attitude to all-things-ski. That’s why, from their first steps on the slopes to top tricks in the park, their friendly instructors and jam-packed lessons are almost guaranteed to leave your tots and teens hungry for more.

Oxygene acknowledge that every child is different, so they divide lessons and groups by ability and age, teaching solely in English and keep group sizes small. Lesson times and lengths vary.

For 3-4 year olds, Snowbear lessons are perfect to give them their first experience of sliding on snow in small groups of 3 kids per instructor.

For 5-12 year olds, ski lessons are centred around fun games and activities so they learn to ski whilst enjoying themselves. Lessons are limited to 6 children per instructor for a more personalised learning experience in the best learning environment.

All that skiing, learning and laughter is hungry work. So to hush those rumbling tums, our Lunch Club serves up healthy, yummy and child-friendly grub in a safe and social environment. Providing the perfect pitstop to keep your child at the top of their game and happily reaching each peak until last lifts. Lunch Club option available for children aged 3-15.

Visitor comments

"Oxygène were fantastic and it was the best experience we have ever had with a ski school. The service from start to finish was superb. Julien looked after my booking and he was very friendly and quick to respond to any requests. The whole process was simple and smooth. Edoardo was my children’s ski instructor, he was incredible with the children! My kids can be quite shy but they warmed to Edoardo immediately and had such fun with him. They are so confident about their skiing after only 5 days and very proud of their bear badge ("medal"). Edoardo made not only the kids feel safe but also us as parents! :) I would highly recommend him to anyone. Aurélien was my ski instructor, he was really patient and helped to build my confidence skiing but also made the experience fun as well as challenging. It was great to have a lesson that meant I could enjoy the whole experience of the beautiful scenery of the mountains but also improve on my skills. I recommended him to my friend Wibke and as a result she booked a snowboarding lesson with him and improved in confidence and enjoyed the lesson too. We are all already missing the snow and will definitely book with Oxygène again." - Trip Advisor
"Very very good. I had a very experienced tutor called Jean-Jaques. He had more than twenty years experience and had good humour and patience...our group enjoyed ourselves and really progressed while having fun. It was a blast." - Trip Advisor
“Professional and nice both for adults and children” - Trip Advisor
"We have used Oxygene for the 3rd time and they haven't disappointed. They are always on time, whether for group or private sessions, and all their ski instructors had been very knowledgeable, with actionable, good recommendations on how to improve one's skiing." - Trip Advisor
