I went on the week-long MINT Technical Performance Camp in Morzine/Avoriaz to improve my fledgeling snowboarding. I had a really great experience with the MINT coaches I encountered. The camp is extremely well organised and people can be moved from one group to another if required, depending on their skill level and needs. My coaches were Jorge and Gerard, and I couldn't have been happier with their instruction and coaching styles. Everyone I hung out with from the MINT team in the bar/at dinner were really friendly and fun people. The arrangement with Treeline Chalets for airport transfers, accommodation and food is excellent and it was the best chalet experience I've had so far. I started the week as a not-quite-beginner, not-yet-intermediate and by the end of it I was boarding with so much more fluency, confidence and technique than I could have envisaged, definitely got out of the experience more than I had expected. One initial concern was that as a 32-year old I would be attending a camp full of teenagers/the gap year crowd, but I was informed by the MINT team prior to booking that the age ranges mostly between 25 and 60-something, and this was exactly what I found - a great group of people of all ages to spend a week with as a solo traveller (the vast majority of people here were also solo travellers). I would recommend this camp for anyone from absolute beginner to more advanced and I will certainly be returning for another week next season.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Morzine. Our 2 young children (aged 3&5) had their first private lesson with Tom-who was a well experienced lovely guy! I would highly recommend this company! Tom had a great approach towards our boys and clearly instructed them through out their lesson (from putting on their skis to checking their clothing and finally ensuring they learnt, listened and had fun!) Thank you to all at BASS!! online booking was informative and well instructed!! Excellent service!! From Laura, Glen, Tom & Fyn McCready

Skiwithease really was so easy to deal from the initial booking as Lorna responded very quickly with clear communications & then they helped me ski easily!

Anja's the best! We've just finished our 2nd ski holiday with a week of morning lessons with New Generation, both times we've had a great experience. My 2 girls and I starting learning 3 yrs ago, now aged 10 and 13 the girls are confidently flying down reds with solid technique thanks to the New Generation team. Kids lessons are fun, and they especially adored having Anja last year who makes sure they have the right position and mindset, all through fun activities like dance moves to music she plays on the go, jumps, mini moguls, backward skiing, skiing on 1 ski, always upbeat and always happy! I had the pleasure of Anja as my instructor this year. Anyone who started to ski in their 40s might well appreciate the anxiety that comes as part of the package! By the end of last year's holiday I was starting to get the hang of it but still was very apprehensive at the start of this week. Blue runs were do-able but for the most part not enjoyable! Anja built my confidence by concentrating on the right position with a good bit of positive psychology thrown in, so much so that by the end of the week she had me going down red runs with enough confidence in my technique that I knew I could get down any slope. Knowing how to correct my position and to have control on slopes that would have given me palpitations just looking at before my lessons with Anja feels like a massive achievement - I can't than Anja enough! We'll be back next year (and this time I'm actually looking forward to it!)

This trip was about much, much more than skiing. Our situation was as follows :- 1) After a dreadful experience a few years ago in a group lesson (not in France), I asked my wife to "give skiing another go" (she had the ability but lacked the self-confidence). I was hoping for a miracle. 2) My teenage daughter and her friend were looking to "hit the slopes" with an experienced and knowledgeable instructor. I had a real dilemma on my hands - who am I going to call? Ski Beyond aka Ghostbusters of the pistes :-) I had the honour, privilege and downright luck to find Helena and Ricey. Apart from being expert ski instructors, they are caring, thoughtful, flexible and professional beyond belief with a unique ability to fully understand your aims, goals and fears when facing the slopes. Like Yoda, they can make you embrace the Force for all levels of skiing ability :-). Truly Outstanding!!! Any downside I hear you say? My wife and teenagers only want to ski with them!!!!

Excellent experience from our initial booking with Tom over email to our childrens weekly ski school lessons.

I had group lessons with Nate for a week in Morzine, and would thoroughly recommend. Ski Supreme were highly organised throughout, Nate was a fantastic and patient teacher, and I really enjoyed my skiing lessons. I was in a group of 3 people, so Nate was able to give us all individual feedback. He calmed my nerves and made my week really enjoyable. Thank you!
