Bruno has been working as a ski instructor for 20 years, originally from Lyon, he will share his love for skiing with you.
About
Addicted to skiing, the mountain and teaching, Bruno gives tools to his students so they can put them into practice. The goal is to make them discover new sensations and correct mistakes as soon as possible. Bruno started skiing when he was 3 years old, this allowed him to perfect his technique and be able to become an instructor. When he was a child, he used to dream about living in the resort of Menuires to ski every day. 

Still during his childhood, Bruno competed in various competitions organised by the ESF. When he was older, he was named Rhône’s champion in super G. Bruno enjoys pushing his limits and thus goes cycling, plays football and goes on trails. 

Bruno thinks highly of the ESF. Indeed, he believes it is the reference in terms of teaching and he also mentions the unprecedented professionalism of the instructors. Besides instructorship, Bruno works as a nature sports and hiking manager. He had the opportunity to ski and teach  in Australia, the weather was really different from France which made it more difficult to adapt. 

When we asked him about his best teaching memories, he cited 3. First, when an old english couple discovered the ski with him. Then, an off-piste week with a belgian group and lastly a golden star week with teenagers.
