Recommendations

Arrive early to the meeting point listed on your lesson card (late arrivals are part of the lesson).

You must bring your lesson card to all lessons, even for private lessons, and present it to your instructor.

You must have a lift pass to attend the lessons.

If you choose a package with lifts, the magnetic lift pass must be placed in the left pocket of your jacket which makes it easier at the ticket checking point of each lift.

Come to your lessons well equipped (skis / boots / ski poles or snowboard / boots) and with suitable clothes (clothes adapted to the outside temperature, gloves, goggles or mask).

Wearing a helmet is strongly recommended as well as adequate protection if necessary (ski competitions, off-piste, freestyle...)

Advice to parents

What equipment will my child need?

Shoes with the right size and only one pair of socks.
Skis: tips at chin level. Trust the professionals for the adjustments.
No ski poles are necessary at the Piou-Piou Club.
However, a helmet is a necessity.

How should I dress my child?

Warm, comfortable, waterproof jacket, overalls or ski suit. Mittens rather than finger gloves. A mask or sunglasses (attached with a cord) and an anti-UV index 3 minimum.

I have two children, is it possible for them to share the same instructor?

Yes, private lessons can include up to 4 students but children must have the same level for the smooth running of the lessons and to ensure their effectiveness.
