VIP SKI Confidence Week

Val d'Isère | April 2027

You know how to ski. But knowing you can ski something and actually feeling confident enough to enjoy it aren't always the same thing.

This isn't a week about learning how to ski. It's about helping you enjoy the skiing you can already do.

That's why we're teaming up with Kate Casali, The Ski Mindset Coach, for a special VIP SKI Confidence Week in Val d'Isère.

Whether it's you, your partner or someone else in your family who's struggling with confidence, Kate's support starts with the individual, understanding what's getting in the way and helping them find a way forward that works for them.

Kate’s mindset support complements good ski instruction; it does not replace technical teaching or guiding.

Ski confidence can change for all sorts of reasons, whatever your experience or ability. Perhaps you recognise yourself or your partner here:

• You know you can ski it, but your head tells you otherwise - particularly on steeper, icy or unfamiliar terrain.
• You've lost confidence after an injury or fall and haven't quite found your way back.
• You used to ski more confidently than you do now - even though your ability hasn't disappeared.
• You feel pressure to keep up with friends, family or stronger skiers in your group.
• You overthink your skiing, worrying about falling, holding people up or what might go wrong.
• You and your partner used to ski together, but a difference in confidence increasingly means spending your days apart.
• You've become more cautious over time, even though you've been skiing for years.
• You still love ski holidays but aren't enjoying the skiing as much as you used to.

A piste-side chalet sleeping 12 guests in six en-suite bedrooms, No. 6 Bellevarde is a wonderfully relaxed base for the week. Gather around the log fire for canapés and Champagne after skiing, unwind in the outdoor hot tub, or enjoy access to the nearby pool and spa.

Please note: While the chalet sleeps 12 guests, Confidence Week coaching is limited to 6 places and must be reserved at the time of booking.

Kate isn't there to change your ski technique. She's there to help with what happens between the turns – the thoughts, fears and pressures that can affect how you feel on the mountain.

Because those are personal, her approach isn't one size fits all. Returning after an injury is very different from feeling pressure to keep up, freezing on steep terrain or simply becoming more cautious over time.

Kate helps you understand what's getting in the way of your enjoyment and develop practical ways to manage it. It's not about telling you to be braver. It's about giving you the tools to approach your skiing differently.

For some skiers, losing confidence can start to affect whether they want to ski at all. Kate recently worked with a woman who had become so convinced she'd lost her confidence for good that she thought she might have to hang up her skis altogether. During her holiday, something changed. Before she'd even gone home, she'd booked her next ski trip.



That’s what this week is about. Not pushing you onto harder runs or telling you that you should be able to ski something. It’s about helping you rediscover the enjoyment that apprehension, pressure or self-doubt may have started to take away.

This isn't an intensive coaching retreat. It's still your ski holiday.

You'll stay with VIP SKI in Val d'Isère, enjoy our chalet hospitality and spend your days on the mountain however you choose. The difference is that Kate's support begins before you travel, helping you understand your ski confidence and arrive with a personal focus for the week.

Before you travel
You'll receive full access to Kate's Ski Confidence Reset programme, complete a short confidential questionnaire and have a 30-minute one-to-one session with Kate to explore what's most relevant to you.

In Val d'Isère
Kate will join us for a dedicated evening with a group confidence session, practical introduction to EFT, informal Q&A and time for conversation. Then it's over to you to take what you've learnt onto the mountain and see how a different mindset might change your skiing experience.

After your holiday
A short follow-up questionnaire gives you the opportunity to reflect on what made a difference and share your experience with us.

All Confidence Week support with Kate is available to guests aged 18 and over.

And you don't need to arrive thinking “I have a confidence problem” to benefit. You might simply recognise that sometimes your head gets in the way of the skiing you know you're capable of.

Success won't look the same for everyone.

It might mean skiing a run you've been avoiding, feeling comfortable saying no when your group chooses a route you don't want to take, returning after an injury with less fear, or simply spending more of the day skiing alongside your partner.

Perhaps it's just thinking less about whether you're skiing well enough and more about how much you're enjoying the mountains.

Because you don't necessarily need to become a better skier to have a better ski holiday.

Sometimes, you just need the confidence to enjoy the skier you already are.
