‘Courchevel, simply amazing!’
Thierry Piekar comes from Mt Saint-Aignan. This ski instructor is specialised in teaching alpine skiing, cross-country skiing and snowboarding. He instructed these different disciplines first from 1969 to 1979; he then took a break before taking up teaching his passion in 2005.
Thierry discovered skiing at the age of seven; it was a revelation for this instructor in the making, who then only had one objective: training to transmit his passion to the greatest number. After he participated in several regional competitions, he naturally headed towards L’Ecole du Ski Français (ESF), which represents for him a reliable teaching.
Since then, Thierry has been instructing his favourite disciplines with the same enthusiasm to anyone, adapting his method to his learners’ levels. Above all, this instructor appreciates communicating his knowledge to novices, but also to more experienced skiers, whether adults or children. His greatest satisfaction: observing them improve while taking pleasure.
Before he became part of Courchevel ski resort, Thierry taught in Saint-Moritz, Axamer Lizum and Tignes Val Claret. He also had the opportunity to hurtle down many slopes all over the world!
Today, Thierry is retired and businessman. He still continues to teach for his pleasure and for the pleasure of his learners.
