PORTILLO SKI CENTRE, CHILE
The ski school

Portillo’s Ski School has been one of the world’s finest for over 50 years. The School’s excellence continues today under the direction of Michael Rogan, a year-round ski professional. Four of the School’s directors in the past were Olympic Gold Medal winners. Portillo’s first director was the famous Emile Allais, French Champion of the 1930s. Emile was followed by other greats such as Othmar Schneider, gold medallist in the 1952 Olympics in Oslo; Stein Eriksen, Olympic gold medal winner also in 1952; and Pepi Stiegler, a silver medallist in the games at Squaw Valley, and gold and bronze medal winner in the Olympic games of Innsbruck.

PORTILLO SCHOOL: GROUP LESSONS
Portillo offers group lessons in all levels of skiing and snowboarding. With top-level instructors and trainers and a low student-to-teacher ratio you will learn quickly and enjoyably. Ski and boarding classes are also a great place to learn to improve your technique, make new friends and get the most out of the mountains. So once you arrive at Portillo, stop by the Ski School office and register for group lessons.

Group lessons are for ages 7 years and up, of all ability levels. We will match you with skiers or riders of compatible ability, from first timer to expert.

Group classes are held from 10:30am to noon and 3pm to 4:30pm. Participants and instructors meet right outside the ski in & out access 15 minutes before the beginning of classes.


PORTILLO SCHOOL: PRIVATE LESSONS
Privates are designed to offer individually tailored instruction for all ability levels. These lessons are the fastest way to improve or learn the latest tips and techniques. Our instructors will develop a class that meets your specific needs and goals. Also privates offer a chance to take a class with a couple of your friends or family members only.
