Villars-sur-Ollon
Ski instructor in Villars-sur-Ollon
Villars sits on a terrace above the Rhône valley looking straight across at the Dents du Midi, which is the view people remember long after the skiing. The slopes are gentler than Verbier's and considerably more forgiving, which makes it the better choice for a first week on skis, for children, and for anyone rebuilding confidence after a bad fall.
It works year round rather than seasonally. In summer the same terrain becomes hiking and climbing country, and the altitude golf course is one of the highest in Europe. Families make up most of what we arrange here, and the sessions are usually planned around two very different levels in one group.
Why private beats group
A group lesson moves at the speed of its slowest member and spends half the morning waiting at the bottom of a lift. A private day is yours: if your problem is one thing — steeps, moguls, a stubborn inside ski — that is what the day is about. Most people who switch never go back.
Lift passes and equipment
Your lift pass is not included and you arrange it yourself, since most people already have one or a season pass. Bring your own skis if you have them. If you need rental, say so when you book and your instructor will point you at the right shop rather than the nearest one.

Common questions
What level do I need to be?
Any. Complete beginners are a normal booking, and so are strong skiers who want to move off-piste safely. Tell us honestly where you are in the notes — it is the single most useful thing you can write there.
Can my children and I share a lesson?
Yes, if you ski at broadly similar levels. If the gap is large, two separate lessons work far better than one compromised one.
What about off-piste?
Off-piste and touring are available with instructors qualified for it, and depend on conditions on the day. Say so when you book so we match you correctly — it is not something to decide on the chairlift.
