What matters is who you’re with

Sestriere is at the heart of the Vialattea: an endless ski area with pistes for every level, views you'll remember and fresh-snow slopes waiting to be explored.

Each of us has our own style and our own take on the mountains, but we're brought together by the same passion for snow and for teaching. And it's in this variety that we find the right instructor for you.

    In una giornata da autodidatta insoddisfatta per lo snowboard, ho trovato sulle piste Maurizio, […] grazie a molti consigli (e alla sua pazienza), ha migliorato la mia esperienza di snowboard! Scuola super consigliata!

    We are a large family with varying skill levels and different needs, and Yes Academy exceeded all our expectations. […] In just four days, our novice skiers transformed into near-professionals!

    I had both a private lesson to revise my snowboarding technique and several beginner ski lessons. The instructors were very professional and encouraging, providing guidance that helped with building the confidence; and generally were a lovely company on the slopes!
