Snoworks Pro

We have been one of the leading providers of professional ski instructor courses for the past 22 years and are recognised as an official BASI Business Partner.  Our ‘All British’ team of coaches are not only expert BASI Level 4 ski instructors, but we also have BASI examiners to coach you as well. Very few instructors get selected to be examiners, they represent the very best coaches in the BASI system. Knowing the exam criteria inside out, they will be able to shape your skiing to pass the exams better than anyone. What makes us different from other providers is that we are a very small company. The people you speak to on the phone are also the owners of the company and your coaches on the slopes. Because of this, you get a small passionate and committed team who really cares about your success.

 

It’s super important to us that if we are offering the highest level of training we need to do it on the best snow available. We have therefore moved our program to the fantastic snowsure Zermatt glacier. At an altitude of 3,820m, the snow condition reliability really is the best in Central Europe. By staying in the pretty Italian resort of Cervinia rather than Zermatt in Switzerland, we get to indulge in delicious Italian pizza, coffee and gelato without the Swiss price tag, whilst not compromising on the skiing as both resorts share the same ski area.
