PEAK LEADERS-SKI INSTRUCTOR TRAINING COURSES

 

SO, TELL ME ABOUT PEAK LEADERS…

 

Peak Leaders ski instructor training courses and internships give you the chance to train, learn and have the experience of a lifetime doing a sport you love.

We’ve been training ski instructors for over 20 years so when it comes to packing your bags and heading off to the mountains, we know everything there is to know.

We specialise in running courses in two fantastic Swiss resorts – Saas Fee in the fall and Verbier in the winter.

And all of our courses include exams from BASI, the British Association of Snowsport instructors, who’s qualifications are recognised all over the world – including in Japan, Switzerland, Canada, New Zealand, Austria, the USA, Australia…

BASI Gap course

Verbier Ski Instructor Training

 

 

A winter in the world-famous resort of Verbier is an unforgettable experience.

The courses include race training, backcountry days, weekly fitness classes and more.

Plus you can work straight after the course and extend your stay in the chalet for the whole winter. Get in touch to find out about how our internships work.

We also have two accommodation options: Catered or Train-only.

Catered Trainees stay in our great accommodation right by the slopes and have dinner five nights a week and breakfast five mornings a week.

Meanwhile Train-only includes all of your coaching and exams and off-snow activities, but you can arrange your own accommodation and catering.

We normally offer BASI Level 1 and level 2 exams, but on our January start you can take the BASI 1 then train for the BASI Mountain Safety off-piste exam.
