\ud83c\udfd4\ufe0f Our beginnings in Les 2 Alpes<\/h3>

L'ESI Saint-Christophe<\/strong> was born in 1986<\/strong>founded by a group of instructors with a shared vision: to teach skiing differently. Their ambition? To create a school more human<\/strong>, close to the mountains<\/strong>and above all centred on the pleasure of learning<\/strong>. Going against the grain of fixed methods, they have devised a way of working without 'tables': here, courses are not allocated on the basis of seniority, but rather depending on the match between the instructor and the student's needs<\/strong>.<\/p>

The name \"Saint-Christophe\" was not chosen at random: several of the founders came from the village of Saint-Christophe-en-Oisans<\/strong>nestling at the foot of the massif on which the 2 Alpes glacier rests. This strong link to the valley, its people and its culture has remained with us ever since. at the heart of the school's identity<\/strong>.<\/p>

\ud83e\uddd9 An independent venture, then ESI<\/h3>

In its first season, the school operated on a completely independent basis. independent<\/strong>with its own logo (the famous green and pink elf<\/strong>), medals and a unique approach to teaching. The following year, the school joined the syndicate of International Ski Schools (ESI)<\/strong>A network recognised for its values of quality, educational freedom and closeness to students.<\/p>

\ud83c\udf0d A local and international school<\/h3>

Today, ESI Saint-Christophe is a proud member of the ESI network<\/strong>while retaining its strong local roots<\/strong>. We speak several languages here, we welcome skiers from all over the world, but we don't stop there. the mountain spirit<\/strong> and love of the region remain at the heart of our mission.<\/p>

And this link with our roots has never been broken: several of the founders are still instructors at the school today<\/strong>. Every winter, they pass on their passion, their know-how and their vision of skiing with the same energy as on their first day. \ud83c\udfd4\ufe0f<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

For almost 40 years, ESI Saint-Christophe<\/strong> remains true to its DNA: an independent, human school rooted in the mountains of Oisans. But this loyalty has never held back our desire to evolve. Quite the contrary, in fact.<\/p>

Over time, we have broadened our horizons to include offer experiences for all audiences<\/strong>The same high standards of quality and support. Today, ESI Saint-Christophe is :<\/p>
