3 Years Old and First Ski Lesson!

La Norma is well-known as a child-friendly ski resort, and for good reason! This is how we ended up in La Norma for the first time. La Norma is the perfect place to introduce children to the world of winter sports. Children as young as three can start at the Piou Piou ski club, under the guidance of experienced ESF instructors. At Club Piou Piou, lessons are offered in a playful way, helping children learn to control their skis through fun activities. The lessons last 1.5 hours, which is just the right amount of time to introduce young children to skiing without it becoming overwhelming. Parents have the option to watch the lessons and see how their children develop on the slopes, though it’s not mandatory. We like to use this time to take a few runs down the mountain with our older son.

A unique aspect of ski lessons at Club Piou Piou is the exceptional care and attention each child receives. In a lesson group of around 15 children, there are six instructors available to help. This high instructor-to-child ratio ensures that each toddler gets plenty of personal attention. The instructors are specially trained to work with young children and know exactly how to make the lessons fun and engaging. This creates a safe and supportive environment where children can build their confidence on skis.

Our daughter’s first ski week at Club Piou Piou was an unforgettable experience that has hopefully laid the foundation for a lifetime of enjoyment in winter sports! La Norma offers the perfect combination of learning and fun, making it a top destination for families who want to introduce their children to the magic of winter sports.
