Terrain, ability and group
Verbier has always been our home, the terrain is vast and world famous, the town is also famous for its own reasons, it’s nearly impossible to get bored here. It’s the perfect location for 10 weeks of amazing training to develop your skiing. Training to pass the Level 1 and Level 2 ski instructor exams. On completion, the level 2 qualification allows the holder to teach in an alpine environment across the globe.
We take this on a case by case basis as it is nearly impossible to give a concrete answer as everyone is different. As a rough guide we would expect a potential trainee to be able to ski all pistes in parallel with hopefully, though by no means essential, a bit of experience in more challenging terrain. On our level system we would be looking for a level 3 standard or higher.
