I had a wonderful experience with David Preis, who was my snowboard instructor for a full day private lesson. I had been snowboarding on and off for over a decade, yet felt stuck as a perpetual intermediate rider, so I wanted to take my riding to the next level. David Preis is not only a super friendly and patient instructor, but he is also incredibly knowledgeable (with over 30 years of teaching / riding experience). He explained so many topics and techniques during our all day session, particularly the topics that I was interested in covering (proper turning technique, switch riding, some basic tricks, carving). The way he teaches really makes you dig deep and really think about the reason why you do certain things, like body mechanics, physics, and general riding philosophy, which is really interesting. It's not like he only tells you to do A, B, and C, but he tells you the reasons behind why you should be using certain techniques over others. I personally really enjoyed his teaching style because he left no rocks unturned and really picked my brain. I wish I had taken this lesson years ago, but it's never too late to learn :) Highly recommend David for anyone who feels stagnant or stuck in their riding, and wants some seriously thorough instruction!

Dave really helped me get my confidence skiing. I had been struggling at the same level for some time. He explained the simple things that I needed to do improve. His coaching was not like other instructors who repeat the same things he really understood the specific things I had to do to improve. Thanks to the evolution ski team.
My girlfriend and I had a great half day ski lesson with Gioia. It was the first time for us in Zermatt, and she has been super kind in sharing great tips for both slopes and food. We enjoyed a lot the lesson, it improved our technique, with a lot of fun! Absolutely recommended!
Kind instructors, they really take the time for you and very good with kids! If you want to take ski lessons we recommend to do it here we had a great vacation!
I had a great time skiing with Gioia, she was fun, easy to talk to and most importantly a great coach. She was able to give very clear technical points, things to watch out for and work on, and relevant drills when telling me to do something wasn’t enough. My skiing came a long way in the 3 sessions we had together. She also showed me the only place on the mountain to get decent coffee on the Swiss side - the lessons were worth it for that secret alone ! Thank you !
I had 3 half day classes with Rihards in March 2020, followed by 2 half day classes with Gioia this January. It has been a great experience for me, not only concerning the improvement of my skiing technique but also regarding the confidence boost that I needed in order to let go in steeper slopes. I really appreciated their patience and all the little tailor made details that allowed me to become a better skier and fully enjoy Zermatt. All in all, from a practical amateur, I can now confidently ski red runs without any stress! Loved the experience and will definitely come back
We are a family of 4. Mum, dad and 2 kids (5&8). we took a super last minute decision to go skiing with the kids to Zermatt at the end of the year. We were there from the 28th to the 31st of December. Regardless a level of spontaneity we managed to get not only a great place to stay but also a great ski school for the kids. Evolution Ski School was absolutely great. Their coordinator Fabrizio was super friendly, flexible, adaptable to our needs and our kids wishes. All teachers were great, super kids oriented, keeping them confident and most importantly safe. Grazie mille Fabrizio, speriamo di rivederti presto. Our youngest was the first day with Hayley and the rest of the days with Super Dave David Preis). Thank you very much Hayley for the patience. You were great. Fantastic Dave, we are very grateful for taking care of our boy, he was very courageous next to you. Dave was also my teacher and i can honestly say, i was able to do that pist only because of you :)). Grazie mille Dave e non dubitare che appena se torna siamo con te! Our older daughter was with Aidan (Aidan Mc Dougall) in a school group and also with Hayley, We thank you guys very much. Our daughter is more excited than never to get better and even though that brings me a lot of fear it also give me pride. Thank you for taking care of her. As a family we totally recommend the school for your kids holidays. Dont miss the chance of meeting a great team!
