01Meet Mathieu
Born in La Clusaz, state-certified since 2011.
I came up through the Club des sports de La Clusaz. A French state-certified ski instructor since 2011, I teach at ESF La Clusaz.
I lived in Canada for twelve years, coming back to teach here at Christmas and in February, and worked for Whistler Blackcomb, in British Columbia, to sharpen my off-piste skiing.
Today I am back home. What I bring: teaching skills, patience and a sense of welcome, the way we do it in La Clusaz.
