Roddy’s Little Black Book Ski Guides & Instructors
An exclusive network of elite, independent ski and snowboard instructors in Verbier.
A carefully curated selection of trusted professionals, each known personally for their experience, discretion, and exceptional standard of teaching.
As a more personal alternative to traditional ski schools in Verbier, this platform provides a flexible and tailored way to find the right instructor for your time on the mountain.
Whether you’re looking to build confidence, explore off-piste terrain, or refine your technique, you can connect with independent instructors suited to your needs.
A More Personal Approach to Ski Instruction
Many visitors to Verbier begin by searching for a traditional ski school. While these offer structured group lessons, they often lack the flexibility and personal attention that independent instructors provide.
Over many seasons working in Verbier, I’ve had the opportunity to ski with and get to know a number of exceptional instructors – professionals who consistently deliver a high level of teaching and client experience.
Roddy’s Little Black Book brings together a small, carefully selected network of these independent instructors – individuals I know personally and trust to deliver an exceptional experience.

A Small, Carefully Selected Network

Whether it’s your first time on skis, off-piste guiding, or refining technique – the right match matters.
Our role is to ensure you’re paired with someone who understands your goals and delivers exactly what you need.
