I had the pleasure to meet Simon when looking for a spontaneous ski training in Zermatt! The day had been very windy and the slopes were icy. I felt anxious after only having been skiing twice. The friendly and informative care started from the moment I stepped into the pds office. Simon was super calm and motivating at the same time offering some beautiful insights into the Zermatt alpine landscape while training. The techniques I learned truly helped me to leave my anxieties on the slopes behind. Also, very thankful for the great videos he recorded during training! I will definitely return for more improvement and fun activities.
If you are in Zermatt and looking for world class ski coaching/lessons, PDS offers exactly this. This was our second time of using the PDS team and our recent experience was outstanding. The booking and payment system was slick and straight forward. Pre-lesson communication is "to the point" and the guys are always 100% on time!! Very efficient. Matthew was our coach and his ability to adjust his training methods to suit 2 very different (age and ability) skiers was impressive. He quickly unlocked our potential and carefully pushed us past our original skill level expectations, whilst never once making us feel uncomfortable. Considering this was not our first trip to Zermatt and the mountain range offers so much variety, Matthew managed to coach us on new runs and across different areas each day, allowing us to explore and maximise our time in this wonderful resort. This is what made our PDS experience world class.
Satine was the ideal teacher for our 4yo daughter. She's very friendly, cheerful, relaxed and energetic. My daughter made loads of progress and was happy to go with Satine each morning which made our holiday fab. She responded really well to our daughter's needs and wishes. She is compassionate and understanding. I would definitely recommend Satine and look forward to seeing her on the slopes again one day!
Skiing is meant to be fun and socialable what ever your skill level and I was lucky to paired up with an absolute Gent: Ari. The drills were tailored, progressive and after two days I was much more confident and had made a friend. Thank you!
We had a great ski lesson with Keira, over two days. She was really wonderful and patient with our two kids, who had never been on skis before. By end of day two they were whizzing down the blue slopes. Thanks again Keira, it was lovely meeting you and really appreciate how great you were with our kids. They had a blast! All the best Amanda x
