I visited Tignes with a large group of friends last week - All of which were intermediate/advanced skiers, and when compared to me only having had one lesson at the snow dome prior to flying out, it was safe to say I was a beginner. I met with Tom on my first day of skiing for a private 2.5 hr morning lesson and wasn't expecting to come away as confident as I did. He was so professional, gave great advice and just an all round great teacher/instructor. We started off going down from the half way point of some green runs to assess how easily I could stop and how much control I had etc. Once I felt more confident with stopping/turning we then went down some blues. By the end of the lesson I was parallel skiing going down some fast blues, with Tom right behind me. After the lesson had ended, I rejoined my group of friends and felt confident going down every blue in Tignes / Val D'isere and even ended the holiday on the third day going down 3 red runs. I would 100% recommend a private lesson as you get the instructors full attention and they can really get to work on your technique. Also cant recommend Tom enough - He took me from someone who had never ski'd on real snow before, to going down blues and reds and all from one x 2.5 lesson. Cheers Tom!

Another great experience with like minded people. Si always seems to find people that get on and ride well together whilst having a great laugh! If you feel your having one of those ‘off days’ there’s always someone around to lift and encourage you ! Always been a great way to make new friends and you’ll find yourself bumping into year after year.. surely says something! Everyday there was a new adventure where Si would put the skills you’ve learnt on previous courses into practice and taking you places you’d miss out on otherwise. Some great new experiences this year. Thanks everyone involved in making this an epic trip! Can’t wait till the next one...

On a very snowy day, myself and 4 fellow ski friends decided to switch it up with a 3 hour private snowboarding lesson with Jay. We had such a blast, and he was so patient with our mixed abilities. By the end he'd even gained a few converts... a sign of a great teacher. Thanks!

Corinne is an excellent instructor, i was a bit anxious yet she put me at ease quickly and reassured me that everything would be ok! She ascertained my ability and gave fantastic descriptions of what I needed to do to improve being very patient with me throghout. My partner is more confident on the slopes and Corinne managed both our abilities very well, my partner was off practicing in the powder whist I was attempting just to turn down the slope (something i’ve found very difficult) in terrible weather. With Corinne's guidance i was confident enough to go up again and have another go at the dreaded turns!! I would thoroughly recommend Mayhew Snowboarding to anyone who wants to get the most out of the mountains and themselves.
