Full Course Story 10 Weeks in Les 2 Alpes, France

Ready for a full-send season in the French Alps? Our 10-week instructor course in Les 2 Alpes blends world-class BASI coaching, big-mountain adventures, and a buzzing alpine lifestyle — perfect for anyone chasing qualifications and unforgettable days on snow. You’ll work toward your BASI Level 1 and 2 while building serious all-mountain confidence across everything from pistes to race gates and terrain parks.

Set in one of Europe’s highest resorts, Les 2 Alpes delivers the goods — high-altitude glacier laps and a legendary freestyle scene matched by the apres. You’ll stay in a chalet-style hotel right on the main street, just steps from the lifts and surrounded by the best bars, hangouts, and mountain views.

Each week, you’ll drop into focused training blocks led by our expert coaching team — mixing tech sessions, freeride clinics, and teaching practice. You’ll shadow real ski schools, sharpen your technique, and dial in the skills you need to pass your exams and instruct with confidence.

This is also a Nonstop season, which means the vibes go way beyond training. Through our MORE Program, we pack the calendar with weekly socials and side missions — from mountainside après at Pano Bar to parapenting, and everything in between.

A proper season with purpose. Big terrain, a close crew, and a serious step forward in your ski game.

I had an amazing time out in Les Deux Alpes. I met so many great people and my skiing improved so much. I would highly recommend this to anyone considering a ski instructor course – the coaching was top class, as well as life off the slopes! "
