What our clients say

  • “Best ski school I've ever found....by a clear mile!”

    I'm just back from a week long technical performance course with parallel lines, they run courses for everyone from complete beginners to experienced skiers. I had a fantastic instructor called Dan and was blown away by his technical knowledge, his eye for detail in peoples ski technique was exceptional and he put things across in a simple, easy to understand way. By the end of the week he had us skiing terrain and conditions that we would never have even contemplated at the start of the week.

  • “Fantastic Ski School in Meribel”

    For the second time we have places our kids (7 and 5) into Parallel Lines for daily skiing lessons. Unlike some other larger, more well-known ski schools in Meribel, the group sizes are small and the ski instructors speak excellent English. The kids made amazing progress over the week. And it was great to have some continuity with the same ski instructor for the second year. Just fabulous!

  • “Lee was an excellent instructor”

    “Everything was excellent. I took snowboarding lessons, I couldn’t stand up at the start of the week and could link turns by the end, couldn’t ask for more! Lee was an excellent instructor, easy to get on with and has some excellent stories to boot.”

  • “Best ski school in Meribel”

    This is the second year we have used Parallel Lines and they really are the best ski school in Meribel. They never disappoint, they completely 'get' kids. I have two boys who adored both David and Ed their instructors. They skied the whole three valleys in a fun yet safe environment and boy did they learn to ski well!

  • “Great lesson again”

    Recently had a private lesson with Dan, last one a year or so again. Although we have been skiing for many years now there is always the need improve in certain areas and correct any bad habits. Dan was excellent again, he really looks at the way you ski and teaches one in a very relaxed but very succesful manner. He pushed us but within our limits and really felt the benefit. Thanks Dan, we will be back.

  • “Fantastic kids ski school”

    We met her ski instucter Paul on the first day and the 2 other little girls in her class and I spent the first couple of hours with them to make sure she was ok. Paul had a great rapport with the kids really quickly and my daughter was soon going down green runs and having a ball. Paul encourage her and gave her the confidence she needed to try and no be afraid of falling over!

  • “Very Happy Children!”

    Across three families, we had 5 children in ski school with Parallel Lines, as well as 2 who took a private lesson. Each child made really great progress over the 6days but more importantly, really enjoyed their ski lessons and is excited about coming back again next year. Huge thanks to Ed, Boozy, Dan and the team ... first class.

  • “Private Ski Lesson”

    I booked a private ski lesson with parallel lines while in the 3 valleys. The booking process was very efficient and I received clear communication from them prior to my visit. The instructor was very good and I learnt a huge amount in a short space of time. Highly recommend lessons with Parallel Lines

  • “First ski lessons for 6 and 8 year olds”

    We wanted the first ski experience for the kids to be a positive one. Our friends are seasonaires and told stories of other schools with big groups and lost kids or instructors without good english. The lessons are also 4 hours, so me and my wife got a good ski in before meeting up. This is a good example of you get what you pay for and although not cheap was money well spent. The kids were skiing with us by day 3! Amazing, thanks Parallel lines and Mirco their teacher!
