Are you familiar with snowshoeing?
The oldest winter sport in the world, snowshoeing has become a favourite leisure activity amongst lovers of the nature and its wonders. You may come across chamois, mountain hare or larch trees amongst others during your sporting walk…as, yes, this activity has the merit of giving you exercise without effort! Guided walks as a family or amongst friends through our pretty resort of lesArcs are all yours!
  

+ Marked and safe itineraries for snowshoeing and pedestrians HERE.
Ski, snowboard and monoski lessons with Pierre Raisson. Fun teaching based on the simple but essential rules of physics, mechanics, physiology and psychology.
 "SKIER INTELLIGENT", "SMART SKIING", with Pierre Raisson.
Private lessons, commitments: the best way to protect yourself, thanks to a reduced number of people in lessons, and the ease with which you can adapt departure times, slightly out of sync with peak times and areas.
It's the ideal way to enjoy the wonderful Les Arcs ski area in complete tranquillity.
Get off the beaten track of "mass" ski instruction. Use an original, unique, scientifically advanced teaching and learning technique. Fun, enjoyable and easy...
Personalized ski, snowboard and monoski lessons, for all ages, all levels, and even "desperate" cases.
A former instructor at the École Nationale de Ski et d'Alpinisme, as well as at ESF ski schools, Pierre Raisson is a creator of techniques and the author of the first books on snowboarding and monoskiing.
Over time, he developed an analysis and then a technique common to these different forms of sliding.
Ski, snowboard, monoski: "same battle"!
Transform your qualities, your quest for progress, your desires, your fears, your visceral fears into understanding, strengths, then HAPPINESS!
I think, so I glide.
But you have to know what to think about.
That's why we have to ski with our heads first, using our intelligence as a support.
Know what you're doing on the snow and why you're doing it, before you do it... Do you follow?
This teaching of skiing, snowboarding and monoskiing, based on a surprisingly simplified understanding of the essential laws of physics, physiology and psychology, this method enriched by proven experience, remains the surest route to success and pleasure.
Thinking is one thing, acting is another. And so...
One of the first traces (the second, it would seem) of monoskiing on the North Face of Mont Blanc, then 4808 m..., as well as some of the first traces of snowboarding on the East Face of the "Pic du Communisme", Pamyr's highest peak at 7495 m, were to support his claims, his books.
Piste, off-piste, adults, children, beginners (he loves it!), intermediates, experts, recalcitrants or even hopeless cases, alone or accompanied, you're sure to know where you stand, why, and what doors are open to you.
Understanding to learn, whatever your age or level, or "SKI INTELLIGENT": what else?
Patience and a quietly demanding approach. Humor and poetry, if you like.
What makes him happy? Your progress!
At the end of the season, if you wish, you can return home with photos and videos of your performance and progress on the snow.
All in French, in english, suficiente en español, Немного по-русски.
