Introduction
There are very few, if any, resorts in Europe that beat Verbier as a base to start your Ski instructor Career. Our Coaching team is made up of some of the highest qualified instructors in Verbier and many are BASI Examiners. All hold specialist off-piste and Freestyle qualifications and are perfectly placed to help you make massive changes to your skiing.
Unlike other programmes that use a one size fits all programme we tailor the training to our students with much more individual coaching and the smallest groups for coaching of any provider in Verbier. Our flexible training meets the needs of our students and is only ever delivered by fully qualified BASI instructors.
While working towards your BASI level 2, you will spend time race training in gates/stubbies on the Bruson Stade, in the park with Freestyle coaches, in the bumps, working on Piste-Performance and off-course skiing some of the incredible Freeride Terrain that Verbier has to offer. This combination of training helps you become a rounded skier and talented instructor.
As with all of our long residential courses, Avalanche equipment is included as standard. Avalanche safety and rescue training are essential skills for any aspiring Freeriders. Our team focus on developing these skills throughout the course, and by the end of the programme, you will be able to safely navigate off-piste without a guide.
What’s Included?
The Accommodation
We have a number of accommodation options in the resort. Those who book early will be able to choose which chalet they would like to be in. If there are dramatic differences in the quality or the location of a property this will be reflected in the cost of the course. Please see the booking section for more details.
Please Note – There is no catering included in our Verbier Packages. They are entirely self-catered.
We have 3 chalets to choose from:

It’s easy to access Verbier in the winter, via the gondola, which takes 13 minutes up to Medran station. The cable car will be open from 5.15 am until 11.50 pm which is free with your lift pass. Buses also run late into the night, with fares costing between 3 – 6 CHF. Choose bus number 251 or opt for a taxi which will set you back slightly more.
