Overview
ESF has taught in Courchevel since 1947 and is, by instructor numbers, the largest ski school in Europe — over 500 state-certified instructors, covering everything from toddler garderie through to freeride, freestyle and snowshoeing for adults. Its scale is matched by resort-wide familiarity: as the original Courchevel school, it has a long-standing presence across the Three Valleys.
Its standout for families is Drago's World, ESF's own children's village for ages 3–5, alongside daycare for children from 18 months and structured meal programmes built around the ski day.
