I can't praise Bastien highly enough.He has taught my entire family and my friend's family to ski and we're all addicted.He is kind, encouraging and has a great sense of humour and a very warm manner. He's a true gentleman and makes our skiing holidays complete.Thank you Bastien!

This is the second time that I have been skiing with Bastien. On both occasions I have learned new techniques to help me enjoy my skiing and ski safely. Batten is an experienced teacher and is particularly good at teaching people of all abilities. I trust Bastien to move me on to more difficult slopes at the right time. The organisation before and during the skiing week is first class and Bastien makes sure that communication is clear and in time. Thank you Bastien!!

Bastien is fantastic at teaching children to ski in a fun and engaging way. My eight year old son and six year old daughter had never put on a set of skis before but by the end of the week they were confidently traversing the slopes. The kids loved their lessons with Bastien and he really helped make our family holiday. I would definitely recommend Bastien as a ski instructor.

Bastien has instructed myself and my three boys for many years - we book him first, then we book our flights and accommodation - he is a critical part of our holiday - he knows my boys and how they ski, so he helps them improve every season

I can not recommend Bastien enough!! I have just had the most exciting week skiing with him. He has so much patience and can teach skills in multiple ways to ensure you understand what to do. I was with my 2 step children who also loved their time with Bastien and have improved massively over the 5 lessons we had.I started as a complete beginner shaking in my boots, literally. To 5 days later skiing confidently down red runs. I cant believe it but its all down to Bastiens brilliant teaching. Thank you so much its been a pleasure. I hope to learn again with you next year!

Bastien is a fabulous instructor, patient and observant. His explanations and demonstrations were clear and progressive so that at the end of even one afternoon, we felt we had learned so much both in technique and confidence we were eager to progress. We will most definitely return and look forward to getting further lessons with Bastien next year.

Bastien is an exceptional instructor for all ages. Skiing with him you will exceed all of your expectations. I did. I even skied the grand couloir and off piste and I am over 60 years old! I skied as a intermediate for many years and was stuck there. Not now. He also taught my grandchildren and they learned so very fast to ski parallel with him. They have also enjoyed off piste skiing (our choice of course and after off piste training with Bastien). Bastien will push you to progress more if that is what you want and that is what I pay him for. I have reached way beyond what I believed I could achieve and I am very very happy. I will still occasionally have more lessons to refresh and progress even further. Thank you Bastien. You are the very best instructor I ever had. I will be back.

We had the best time on our recent trip to Saint Martin. Bastien was an excellent teacher, what he taught both of our children in that week was phenomenal. They are now such confident skiers. I was also lucky to have one afternoon lesson and am so pleased I did, my technique improved so much just from one lesson. Bastien is a fantastic instructor, extremely diligent and he makes you feel at total ease. He is great at communicating before, during and post trip. When we return to the area we will certainly be asking for more lessons! We made some fantastic memories that week, Bastien helped us so much and we highly recommend him to anyone beginner or advanced, you won’t regret it!

We dealt with an excellent ski instructor Bastien Tognotti from 19 till 25.02. He is a very skilled skier and a caring guy. He was very attentive with our child and with us too.

Once again a fantastic feb skiing with Bastien, he teaches us and the children, he is very patient, always watching to correct us to be better skiers, he builds your confidence, he makes everything look effortless, excellent teacher great company, see you in feb 2024
