About
About Romain Fabre
Private ski coach in Val d'Isère
Background
From Atlantic to Alpine
I grew up between the Atlantic coast and the French Alps, two terrains that shaped how I work on the mountain. After years training and racing on the slopes, I now coach full-time in Val d'Isère under the supervision of Evolution 2, one of the most established ski schools in the region.
My approach is calm, technical, and built around the client in front of me. Whether you are a returning skier rebuilding confidence, a family wanting a stress-free day, or an advanced skier refining technique, I adapt the session to what you actually need. No fixed program, no over-promised concierge package, just a focused day of skiing with someone who knows the mountain.
Local Expertise
300 km of terrain, known in detail
Val d'Isère and the Espace Killy cover 300 km of marked terrain. Knowing which slopes suit a given level on a given day matters more than reading a lift map. After several seasons coaching here, I know where to find quieter runs, when to time a long traverse to Tignes, where to stop for a fair lunch, and which black runs are actually worth the effort.
This local knowledge also helps when conditions are difficult: fog on the upper plateau, ice on the lower flanks, or a sudden afternoon wind. I plan the day so we ski the right part of the mountain at the right moment, not just whatever the lift map suggests.
Who I Coach
Adapted to the person in front of me
Most of my clients are returning skiers, families with mixed levels, and advanced skiers refining technique. I also coach beginners when I have full days available.
I am comfortable working with adults who want a calm relearning, kids who need patience and clear instructions, and groups that need someone to set a rhythm everyone can follow. The day is yours: pace, terrain, breaks, photos, communication style. I adapt to what makes you ski better and enjoy the time on snow.
