Holiday Details

Many of us who have been skiing for years & years know we need some help but somehow can't face taking lessons & losing the opportunity of free skiing with friends & risking signing on with expensive teachers who aren't much help into the bargain.

Our chalet holidays including ski tuition are the solution!

Dave Beattie is a Scottish BASI instructor who formed his ski school in Courchevel with all English speaking BASI grade 1 instructors over 20 years ago (those of you who know anything about the French restrictions will know how good these guys need to be to satisfy the French of their ability).

Dave now lives in Courchevel all year. I sought him out having been recommended several times by my serious skiing friends! Dave has now taken chalets for the season & personally supervises their staffing to ensure good chalet accommodation & service BUT unlike other chalet operators he includes free ski lessons with the very best qualified instructors rather than just guiding. In Courchevel.We will all therefore be able to enjoy staying together & going off to lessons together in the morning & then start our free skiing late morning in groups of our own choosing.This year there is also a guided holiday in Kaprun & Zell am see suitable for confident red run skiers.

 

Beginners & less experienced skiers are always welcome on our holidays but in Courchevel they will feel much more part of the group because even experienced skiers will be heading towards Skivo2. . Lessons are Sun/Mon/Tues/Thurs/Fri with Wednesday left free

To be sure you have the right equipment Dave has his own hire department & offers servicing for those taking their own skis.

Look up the holiday on www.skivo2.co.uk & check the details  then let me know if you are interested & ask me any questions you would like to. Once you are ready to commit I will ask you to pay a £150 deposit  to Skivo2 so that you are contracted to them as the tour operator.

IF YOU CAN ONLY AFFORD ONE SKI HOLIDAY THIS YEAR THIS IS IT!

Look forward to hearing from you & answering any questions you may have.

Best wishes
