Based in Nendaz, right in the heart of the 4 Vallées ski area, and with stupendous views across the Sion Valley, Sommet et Neige Ski Centre boasts a plum in the middle, all in one place facility where you can rent your skis, choose your ski kit from the in house shop, book any number of lessons, from performance to beginner, knowing you are in the expert hands of a talented group of multinational ski instructors.

​Set up a decade ago by ski guru Jamie Kagan and his wife, the school has been at the centre of ski instructor development, with Jamie himself being  qualified to the highest levels with varying ski formation associations,  from the Irish system ( IASI), the Canadian  and New Zealand systems, and more recently the revolutionary PSIE,  holding prestigious positions around the globe in ski education and development . All the other director trainers hold the highest level 4 qualifications in one or more of these systems.

​The school provides instructor training for levels 3 and 4 trainees, who, once qualified, are adept at identifying technical difficulties and aim to improve ski performance through an understanding of how skiing actually works; your body positioning, your uses of edging and pressure, and will employ accurate strategies, drills and exercises to ensure maximum enhanced improvement throughout your training and performance weeks. Their goal is to not only to improve your skiing, but help you to understand HOW you can achieve results. 

​Our Sommet et Neige /WoW collaboration will be set in a super central lifestyle hotel in the centre of Nendaz village, right near the lifts, with an option for half board and ski rental from the Sommet et Neige shop.

​Your group size will be a maximum of 8, and your week’s training will be tailor made to achieve results, whatever your level,  within the challenging terrain of the majestic valleys of gentle Nendaz.
