I have practically skied all the winters of my life since I was 3 years old, so it seems a way of life to me. I skied competitively in the Sauze d'Oulx Ski Club for over 15 years and became a ski instructor at 19 years old.
I worked in Meribel, France for 3 years and now work as an independent instructor and work through Maison Sport in both Sauze d'Oulx and Meribel.
So with plenty of skiing experience and being an instructor from 6 years, I feel I am fresh with the latest updated techniques that I am keen to pass on to you.
I enjoy teaching all levels and ages, from the kids who want action and fun to the more mature, who want to improve their technique and also have a good ski.

Great with beginners
Fun children’s lessons
Patient with improvers
Superb for intermediates
Brilliant local knowledge

We were a group of 4 adults with mixed abilities. Emily was great and was able to tailor the lessons to help us all improve during the week. Her style is friendly, encouraging and patient, but was able to give us all confidence to take on new challenges and make significant progress. We would not hesitate to recommend Emily - she’s excellent!

Emily was an absolute star, and everything you can expect from an experienced Ski Instructor. She put my daughter, who hadn't skied in 12 years, at total ease and brought her confidence levels up straight away with her relaxed and assured manner. I cannot recommend Emily high enough!! Thanks Emily :)

Emily was the best instructor I’ve experienced for private lessons, she offered very practical and useful tips for skiing especially given the current tough icy conditions. She was friendly and told my friend and I lots about the resort like good places for coffee and to eat. It was a very enjoyable and informative lesson and I’d highly recommend her.

Emily is a fantastic instructor and I would highly recommend her to skiers of all abilities. As someone who had only skied once 2 years previously, Emily’s enthusiasm and feedback really helped me to improve my technique and build my confidence. After two short two hour sessions with Emily I was able to tackle several red runs with ease and really enjoyed my trip as a result. Her communication was excellent throughout. Thank you Emily!

Emily was superb. She listened to what we wanted from the lesson, observed us, and then gave a focussed and compacted lesson that improved us on the spot and gave us lots of technical points to think about for the rest of the week. Extremely friendly and personable. Highly recommended.

Emily was an absolutely fantastic instructor - the best I've ever had :). My partner and I had three two-hour lessons with Emily, both of us about intermediate level although my partner needed a refresher as he hasn't skied as recently as myself. This wasn't a problem at all as Emily was easily able to instruct us both and provide different feedback for each of us to work on whilst bringing us to the same level. Emily provided excellent feedback for us both throughout the lessons - her explanations were incredibly clear and left no doubt on how best to approach each technique she taught us. Our confidence improved exponentially throughout the three lessons and my partner enjoyed it so much (he is usually a snowboarder) that he is planning to buy his own ski boots! I cannot recommend Emily highly enough and just want to say thank you again for a thoroughly enjoyable week and for such excellent advice on our skiing technique :). Hayley and Dan

Emily was simply fantastic - her English is very good (completely fluent) and the logistics of connecting with her was very easy indeed and it went completely as planned then we communicated over whatsapp day to day as needed My 3 children (13, 12 and 9) plus another friends daughter (aged 12) had a morning lesson together for the week. Emily made rapport straight away with the children and by the end of the week were all very sad to say goodbye - they now can't wait to be bridesmaids at Emilys wedding! Emily also sent through some excellent edited video clips to music of them all skiing and having fun which was great and again very professionally done and an added bonus The childrens skiing came on fantastically during the week, i can now barely keep up with my 9 year old son on the piste!! We would have no hesitation in recommending Emily for any other family looking for a fun and reliable ski instructor

We first went skiing 35 years ago and although we have skied many times since we haven’t had lessons since our first time. Four of us booked a lesson with Emily but split into two one and a half hour sessions as our levels were quite different. I can honestly say I learnt so much in that hour and a half it made so much sense. I would definitely recommend Emily she is a lovely young lady, patient, knowledgeable and calm and as Sauze is her home she also gave us great recommendations for restaurants. Thank Emily hope to see you again one day.

We had a great 3 hour lesson with Emily. She noted our areas for improvement quickly and then helped with a number of exercises that were clearly explained and really improved our technique. Very easy to get on with and very knowledgeable of the area, pointing out some runs for us to try on subsequent days. I wouldn’t hestitate to recommend Emily. Many thanks ... Dave & Kiel.

Emily is both charming and extremely competent.

My Children loved every minute of their lessons with Emily, she took them from being ploughers to strong parallel skiers over the course of the week. Its safe to say the children are already excited for next years ski holiday and we will be booking Emily again.

Emily was fantastic, knowledgeable and a great skier. She helped us through thick fog and made us feel very comfortable, she helped us improve our technique and we left with some great tips. It was more like being taught by a friend than a ski instructor we had only just met. Highly recommend booking Emily.

I had a two hour lesson with Emily in Sauze at the end of 2017. As an intermediate skier I don't often have ski lessons, but Emily made me realise what I was missing! She is super easy to get on with and immediately began to work on all of the bad habits in my technique with some exercises and helpful words of wisdom. By the end of our two hours I felt much more confident and had already begun to correct my technique. It was also great fun to ski with her generally and you cant miss her cracking uniform! I will certainly be booking Emily again the next time I am in Sauze d'Oulx!

Where is the meeting point?

You can arrange the meeting point with your chosen instructor by using the Maison Sport messaging system. We recommend agreeing this before you book your lessons, but it can always be arranged at a later date. The instructor should be able to suggest somewhere that is convenient for you both.

What qualifications do the instructors have?

All instructors listed on Maison Sport have been verified by their nation's governing body, be it the French Government's Department of Sport, Swiss Ski Federation or The Italian Winter Sports Federation, so you can rest assured you will be in safe hands when you’re on the slopes.

How many people can take part in the lesson?

Generally no more than 8 people, each instructor has their own policy for this, so it is best to just double check with them by sending a message. Most instructors won't charge extra if there is more than 1 person taking part in the lesson, but always best to check with them before booking.s
