Why a clinic

  • You know what you’ll work on

    Every clinic has a precise programme, declared before you sign up.

  • The group chose your theme too

    That’s where the intensity of the session comes from, and the pleasure of sharing it with people like you.

  • Small group

    From 3 to 5 people.

  • Video feedback included

    With analysis during the session.

  • It costs less than a private lesson

    For the same amount of time on snow.

Before you sign up

The early-bird rate. It isn’t refundable, because the discount is tied to booking early. If you can’t come, you can move your booking to another date on the calendar and keep the rate. If we’re the ones who don’t confirm the clinic, you get a full refund. The refund minus the 10% charge applies instead to lessons booked at the full rate and cancelled within the terms.

Your level. The four levels, for skiing and for snowboarding, are described on the Ski and snowboard levels page.

The other themes. All six themes, with their disciplines, are on the Clinics page.

All the prices for the season are in Prices; cancellations, minimum numbers and the other conditions are in the Terms and conditions.

Where the dates are. You’ll find the active dates, and book them, on Bee Bee Board: this site has no calendar. That’s where the FAQs below point too.

Frequently asked questions

What are Experiences and Clinics?

Experiences and Clinics are fixed-date group lessons, open to anyone who signs up: you don’t need to arrive with a group of your own. Clinics focus on one specific technical theme and last 3 hours; Experiences are more about the experience itself and discovering the area, and last 4.5 hours or a full day. Check the calendar on the site for the dates that are open.

Where do we meet for the lesson? What is the meeting point?

The main meeting point is at the bottom of the Tappeto Jolly magic carpet, at the base of the Sestriere lifts. All group lessons — courses, Clinics and Experiences — start and finish there. For private lessons you can, on request and once our office confirms, meet your instructor at the Fraiteve gondola (opposite the Villaggio Olimpico), at Borgata or at Pragelato.
