Advice and Preparation

Useful Information

  • No registration is final; esf reserves the right to suspend any service if the minimum number of 5 participants for group lessons is not met.
  • esf also reserves the right to combine lessons or modify their schedules and duration.

Equipment To Bring

  • Equipment is not provided (except for laser rifles for biathlon), so you are responsible for bringing suitable equipment for the discipline being taught (according to your size, weight, level, physical condition, etc.)
  • Gloves, a hat/helmet, goggles/mask, and sunscreen are essential parts of the necessary winter sports equipment.
  • Wearing a helmet is strongly recommended, especially for children on the slopes (as they are more vulnerable in the event of a collision with an adult).
  • Wearing a back protector is highly recommended for Freestyle skiing.
  • Please inform your instructor of any health issues or disabilities.

Changing Levels

  • Trust the professionals and let the instructors decide if your child should move to a different level. Respect their progress and avoid pushing them to become a champion before their time!
  • If there is uncertainty between two levels, we prefer to place the student in the lower level to avoid challenging them too much from the start. If it turns out that the student is ready for a higher level, the instructor will make the change accordingly. Additionally, it is always more rewarding to be "promoted" to a higher level than to be "demoted" to a lower one.

General Advice

  • Your digital lesson card may be requested, so please have it ready before your lessons (available on the "myesf" app).
  • Each lesson card is issued for personal use only.
  • Ensure you have a valid lift pass suitable for the lessons.
  • Be appropriately equipped and dressed for the conditions.
