Excellent teacher and fun, interesting lessons
Hands down the best ski instructor I've ever had, and I've had quite a few! Christophe quickly assessed my level, adjusted his plan for the lesson, and off we went. I not only learnt a lot, but had a lot of fun and saw some different bits of the resort. I've since had a couple more lessons to tweak a few things, highly recommended whatever your level.

Great off piste guiding experience with Christophe @ Reflex!
Great two morning sessions (Dec 23) with Christophe at Reflex doing off piste guiding, avalanche safety and ski touring. Christophe's knowledge of La Plagne and surrounding areas is exceptional given his 20+ year’s experience in the resort. Had a great time and could not recommend Reflex enough!

Amazing week of beginner lessons with Christophe
Christophe had the patience of a saint and looked after us 4x beginner skiers so well! He instilled confidence in us each day and we all came on leaps and bounds over 5 lessons. He knows the slopes inside out and took us on some brilliant runs whilst helping us improve our technical skiing ability at all times. Christophe was great fun to be around and we had a laugh all week! Cannot recommend enough!

Fantastic experience
My daughter and I had 3 ski lessons with Christophe. Despite our different abilities Christophe was able to make the lessons fun and challenging for both of us. Great off-piste experience which we would never have dared to do in our own.

Warm, kind talented ski teacher
Had 5 kids in a week of private lessons with Christophe who they all quickly bonded with and respected. They came on leaps and bounds and are now confident on blues after first week on the snow. Highly recommend. Book early as he is popular!

Snow showing
Snow showing with Christophe was amazing, he took us through snowy forests and pointed out local wildlife. It was tricky with a mixed group of 4 adults and 4 kids but he handled it really well and made sure we all had a great time. Sliding down a snow bank was a definite highlight for the kids!

Had 2 lessons with Christophe - both were excellent and they really helped with my level of skiing. His English is very good and is a great communicator with a good sense of humour. Would highly recommend and will definitely have more lessons if I visit the area again

Amazing transformation!!

Jan 2020 • Couples

Christophe was totally amazing with his excellent humourous approach to teaching. He put a very nervous skier at ease with his comprehensive knowledge of the slopes, his relaxing teaching techniques and got my wife parallel skiing in a very short timeframe! We'd booked 5x 2hour lessons and it totally made our holiday great. The booking process was fabulous through Caroline with prompt informative responses.
Already looking forward to next year's lessons!! Thanks Christophe & Caroline.

The Legend of the slopes made my first skiing experience unforgettable - cannot recommend enough!

Mar 2022 • Friends

I had never skiied on a mountain before and initially booked a couple of lessons with Christophe with 2 of my friends. Christophe was an incredible instructor - he was able to constantly push and improve all 3 of us and teach to all 3 of our levels. His enthusiasm for skiing was infectious and we enjoyed our lessons so much we booked another 2! Christophe helped make my first ski experience unforgettable and I went from a scared beginner to being confident on any blue run and also tackling some reds. I cannot recommend enough Reflex ski school for anyone going to La Plagne, even for those who aren’t beginners, as Christophe will take you to the next level.

100% recommendation for Christophe and Reflex Ski School!

Mar 2022 • Friends

Review
Would 100% recommend Christophe and Reflex Ski School! We booked two lessons at the start of the week having never skied on a mountain before - they were so good we booked two more later on in the week! Christophe showed us different runs each time, challenging us more and more as our technique and confidence improved. Christophe is so knowledgeable about skiing and the mountains and his enthusiasm is infectious - he worked really hard to help each of us improve our technique individually, explained everything clearly and made sure we were always laughing. He made us feel really relaxed and safe at all times on the slopes, even taking us down some tricky blues and a couple of reds by the end of the week. Caroline in the office was also super helpful to organise the lessons before we went. If you’re heading to La Plagne - book with Reflex now!!

Unforgettable ski lessons

Jan 2022 • Solo

My first ever ski lessons with Christophe have been excellent! Had an amazing chance to be instructed by such a professional. He knows how to make you feel at ease if it’s your first time skiing and definitely the person you can have a good laugh on the slopes.
He is the right person to challenge you while motivating so you can have the best result in a short time.
Also I want to say a big thank you again for all the incredible emotions I got to experience on the slopes, till the next year!

The best provider of ski lessons in La Plagne 😃

Apr 2022 • Family

I cannot speak highly enough of Christophe and his wife Caroline who together made our first skiing holiday in 9 years so successful.

Christophe, having lived and worked in Sussex, UK for a number of years, is for all intents and purposes fluent in English. Not only was he able to explain how I could improve my technique but did this with nuance, humour and thoroughness.

My son and I booked 5 consecutive (1/2) days' tuition with Christophe starting from either La Plagne 1800 or Plagne Centre and despite being at different ability levels Christophe was able to keep us engaged, motivated and move both of us forward technically.

On our final day of skiing my knees said 'enough'. Without me holding them back my son was equipped with and instructed in the use of appropriate avalanche gear, taken straight to off-piste skiing and had a thoroughly enjoyable time.

For all 3 holidays now taken in La Plagne, Reflex Ski School is our only provider of lessons. We can't wait to get back and certainly won't wait another 9 years before doing so.

Fantastic ski tuition

Jan 2020 • Family

As a family of four - 2 adults and children of 13 and 11 - we had an amazing four lessons with Christophe.
Booking was easy through Caroline, she responded really quickly and couldn’t have been more helpful.
The lessons were brilliant, we’d all skiied a similar number of weeks before but were at slightly different standards, Christophe worked on individual issues with all of us, and always made it fun - giving confidence to my slightly nervous 13 year old and finding enough jumps to keep my wild 11 year old son happy! The week ended with us all managing a black run, having really improved under his excellent instruction. I can’t recommend reflex enough.

Amazing Ski Instructor

Feb 2022

Travelled as part of a group of 4 families to La Plagne and booked ski lessons with Reflex. Little did we know what an absolute treat we were in for when Christophe turned up on the first day. In the mornings he taught our group of 7 children (all with different abilities) and managed to makes the lessons fun and applicable for all. In the afternoons it was the adults' turn and he was just fantastic - his incredible guidance, patience and everlasting smile is what we will remember him for.
Thank you Christophe for an unforgettable week.

Amazing snowshoeing experience

Jan 2021 • Friends

Had such a great time snowshoeing with Christophe! Amazing going to parts of La Plagne you don't usually get to see. Christophe is very good at having a laugh but also told us about our surroundings and kept a constant eye on the safety of the group. Very interesting, very fun morning. Thanks Christophe!

Great Off Piste experience with Christophe

Mar 2023

I was fortunate enough to be able to book two afternoon off-piste sessions with Christophe. Both sessions were amazing, Christophe improved my off-piste skills, had great knowledge of the area to find untracked snow and pushed me enough to try steeper runs, which as he said I was very capable of skiing.

Best experience ever, I felt safe and secure the whole time and I hope to repeat the experience.

Communicating with both Caroline and Christophe via email and ‘Whats App’ was very easy and questions/queries were always quickly replied to.

Highly recommend Reflex and Christophe for anybody looking to progress their off-piste skills.
