Francois is almost Morzine born and bred, coming from down the valley in Thonon les Bains. He has spent 8 years teaching snowboarding in Switzerland with several seasons in the Portes du Soleil resort of Champery.
Francois has also worked in the Japanese resort of Niseko, as well as teaching in the southern hemisphere in Thredbo, Australia, before joining the MINT Snowboard School in Morzine in December 2015.
Francois is an extremely motivated snowboard instructor. He is passionate about teaching snowboarding and at helping you progress your skills.
My instructor, François, was excellent from start to finish. With around 22 years of Snowboarding experience, 14 of which coaching, he really understood the mechanics of snow boarding and was able to communicate them.
He kept it fun and was very up beat. But most important of all he cared about our group getting better and did everything he could to ensure we did.
As an experienced boarder I booked a 3 hour backcountry session with MINT’s Francois. He provided excellent and very clear avalanche equipment and awareness training before we started. The views were amazing and Francois lead a safe but challenging route, giving great guidance on the route, areas to avoid as well as teaching me a huge amount in just a few hours. I would highly recommend MINT for safe but fun backcountry adventures.
Excellent beginner snowboard lessons. We had great lessons with Francois in Les Gets. Lots of fun, laughs and improved our confidence with the board. Would definitely book again
