With the instructors of<strong>ESI, International Ski School<\/strong>, you can get started in this discipline or deepen your practice while discovering new sensations on the slopes.<\/p>\n<p>Telemark technique particularly calls on <strong>balance, coordination and precise weight distribution<\/strong>. As the sessions progress, you learn to control your bending, to execute the turns with greater fluidity, and to gradually find your own landmarks.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you are an experienced skier looking for a new experience or a long-time telemark practitioner, the exercises are adapted to your level and goals. A personalized progression that allows you to develop your technique while fully enjoying the pleasure of skiing.<\/p>\n\n        <\/div> \n             \n    \n  <\/div> \n<\/section>\n\n\n<section
