Independent British Ski Instructor

Hello, my name is Jamie Williams and I have been based in The Belleville Valley since 2015. I hold the full BASI Alpine Level 4 ISTD qualification, Carte Professionelle, European Mountain Safety qualification and am a qualified Race Coach. In addition I am an affiliate member of the American Avalanche Association and have completed multiple courses within the A3 syllabus and am trained to the best practice standards within the avalanche industry. Before becoming a full-time instructor I raced regularly and competed in freestyle competitions while at university. I have since gained a wealth of experience in backcountry ski touring throughout Les Trois Vallées and thoroughly enjoy passing on my knowledge and experience to my clients.

Teaching Philosophy

I aim to create a fun and relaxing environment to maximise your learning potential. I select the most appropriate teaching techniques to suit individual learning styles encompassing technical, tactical, physical and psychological factors. Combining these with local knowledge on the most suitable pistes we can work together to achieve your goals and have a great time on the slopes.
