In 2010, Gavin joined hands with one of the Alps’ favourite ski schools NEW GENERATION to form New Generation Ski School Serre Chevalier and he now works alongside a small team of fully-qualified, English-speaking French and Italian instructors.

Private Coaching

Private Coaching is one of New Generation’s most popular coaching formats. Your instructor will ski with you one-on-one, or with up to six skiers (for a day ski guiding for example). Prices vary depending on the number of skiers wanting to share a session; we recommend that private ski coaching is limited to four skiers maximum, particularly if you are looking for targeted input on your technique, confidence or winter skills for more experienced skiers.

New Generation Private Coaching Prices
2 hours 149 € (1-2 skiers) *
2.5 hours 179 € (1-2 skiers ) *
3 hours 229 € (1-2 skiers) *
4 hours 279 € (1-2 skiers) *
6 hours 389 € (1-2 skiers)
* Note that there is a supplement of 10 € per hour for each additional skier.

Technical Clinics (2-6 skiers)

Technical Clinics are on offer for adults and teenagers who are ‘intermediates’ and above. Over two sessions, usually in the mornings and on alternate days, skiers enjoy focused attention on their technique and are sent away to ‘do a bit of homework on the mountain’ inbetween the sessions. These clinics can also run as three two-hour sessions starting at 09:15, 11:30 or 14:00 (off-peak only).

New Generation Technical Clinic Prices
8 hours (2 x 4 hours) 169 €
6 hours (3 x 2 hours) 149 €

Intro Sessions (1-5 skiers)

Everyone who has skied a while fancies a little push or challenge to perfect their technique or try something new. New Generation’s Intro sessions do just that. Choose from carving, off-piste, bumps, steeps and avalanche safety. Gather a few members of your family or a small group of friends together to create your own Intro Session!
