Ski Guide
Courchevel, France
Lived and worked in Courchevel since 2008. Worked for ESF for 4 years before going independent and setting up my own school. Specialize in private lessons and off-piste.
Following an almost ten-year stint as an instructor in Courchevel. Half-American, I began skiing at the age of 4 in Aspen and continued to ski regularly throughout France, Italy, and Austria before landing my first instruction job with ESF (L'école de Ski Français) where I remained for 6 years. Recently having left ESF, I have continued training and worked as an independent instructor, teaching a number of high-end private clients. I have worked within the French and British systems having gained BASI level 4 ISTD as well as EMS (European Mountain safety).
Having a ski instructor is not just about learning to ski. I can provide expert advice in snow sports equipment as well as wider alpinism, avalanche awareness, mountain safety, and snowpack analysis.

Despite the misfortune of a week with very little snow, Jessy was able to find us some great sealskin hikes! In addition to his undeniable knowledge of the mountains and his great professionalism, Jessy proved to be an extremely friendly guide! I highly recommend him and will keep his contact details for future hikes! (Little bonus: he regularly gets away from the group to take wonderful photos, which he sends us at the end of the day by whatsapp or e-mail!)

We had a great time with Jessy in the Trois Vallées. We did some off-piste skiing and despite the difficult weather, he found us some great runs. He's friendly, dynamic, cautious and really into new technologies in skiing.

An amazing few days of skiing, ski touring and glacier exploring with Jessy. Jessy is a true professional, always alert, safety conscious and tailoring his trips to the ability of his clients - making for a great, memorable experience. (Photos included!). I have been ski-touring with guides for 16 years and would definitely choose Jessy again and recommend him to others.
