Our private lessons adapt to you, not the other way around. Choose the duration (from 2 hours to a full day), the discipline (alpine skiing, snowboard, off-piste, carving, freeride), the profile (solo, couple, family) and your goals. One instructor, fully dedicated, will accompany you throughout your stay in Val d’Isère.
All levels, all subjects.
Find the course that’s right for you.
Thank you for the skiing and snowboarding lessons for my 7-year-old son.
He had a brilliant time with Andrea on the skis and with Flo & Fede on the snowboard, and he loved their professional yet friendly approach.
He can’t wait to come back and see them again! I highly recommend them to everyone!
A highly competent, dynamic and helpful team.
You can count on excellent service and great friendliness, whether you’re hiring equipment or booking ski lessons.
A brilliant experience, as always at Neva Val d’Isère. I highly recommend them and will definitely be back.
What a brilliant team!
My ski lesson really helped me improve; in just three hours I’d got the hang of the basics.
There’s a great atmosphere there – they’re welcoming, energetic and give great advice.
I can’t wait to go back!
My family and I have been coming to Neva in Val d’Isère for three years now.
Whether it’s the ski school or the shop, everything is perfect. We see the team every morning and every evening, always with a big smile. The children are having a brilliant time on their ski lessons.
Thank you, Raph, for these moments with you; thank you, Diane, for the incredible organisation; thank you, Zeli, Mat and Body. We can’t wait to see you all again next year.
It was a brilliant experience for our first group ski lesson.
Raphaël was, as always, in good spirits, attentive and very patient.
Tamara, who took over, was full of useful advice and really put us at ease (especially me, with my fear of heights on the chairlift 😂)
Thank you both!
Born from a passion, driven by a conviction
NEVA was born from the conviction that a passionate instructor makes all the difference when learning to ski. While our group lessons are at the heart of what we do, the private lesson embodies our highest standard: one instructor, one student (or one family), total attention. This is the format where our instructors give their very best, and where you experience the mountain most intensely. Whether you’re starting at 40, looking to unlock a specific technique, or wanting to push your family beyond its limits — we have the right instructor for you.
A private lesson is a one-to-one session with an instructor who focuses entirely on you or your family. A group lesson brings together up to 6 students of a similar level with one instructor.
Private lessons offer fully personalised tuition and greater flexibility in terms of scheduling. They can be intensive for those who want to progress quickly, but they also allow students to learn at their own pace, rebuild their confidence or focus on specific goals.
Group lessons, on the other hand, provide a motivating group dynamic at a more accessible price. Families often combine both formats during their stay.
Yes. During your lesson, your Neva instructor will take you through the priority lanes reserved for ski schools. This saves you valuable time in lift queues, especially during peak season, so you can make the most of your time on the slopes.
You choose the duration based on your needs. Our formats range from 2 hours (ideal for targeted improvement) to a full day (7 hours, ideal for a real immersion). The 3-hour and 4-hour formats are the most popular: long enough to make real progress, without overexerting yourself.
The choice of duration depends mainly on your goal and your ability level. To work on a specific skill, such as carving, short turns or managing the slope, a 2-hour lesson may be sufficient. To make more comprehensive progress across several technical aspects, 3-hour or 4-hour sessions are generally the most suitable. For adult beginners, or for a proper off-piste outing with time to explore, experiment and put advice into practice, it is best to book a half-day or a full day.

That’s the whole point of a private lesson. From the very first session, the instructor assesses your level, understands your goals (learn, improve, explore, push yourself, overcome a fear) and builds a tailored programme. Throughout the sessions, they continuously adjust based on your progress and how you feel. If something isn’t working, you say so and the instructor redirects immediately.
Yes, and it’s actually one of the most popular formats. A family private lesson allows the whole family (up to 4 people at the same price) to ski together with a dedicated instructor, provided everyone is at the same level. It’s particularly well-suited when parents and children want to share the same experience rather than splitting into separate lessons.
All the disciplines we offer. Classic alpine skiing, snowboard, carving, off-piste skiing, freeride, freestyle, technical improvement. Our team covers the full range of snow sports in Val d’Isère, and we assign you an instructor who specialises in your chosen discipline.
Yes, all our instructors are fluent in both French and English. Other languages may be available depending on the instructor — feel free to contact us.
