The Experience

Ever wondered if you’re actually doing that turn right, or just faking it? That was me, standing at the edge of the Sunnegga slope in Zermatt, boots pinching a bit and heart thumping. Our guide—Luca, who somehow knew everyone on the mountain—grinned and said, “Let’s see what you’ve got.” I tried to look confident but honestly, I was nervous. The air smelled clean and sharp, almost like metal, and there was this soft crunch under my skis that made me feel like I’d already started learning before we even moved.

Luca watched us for a few runs before giving gentle nudges—sometimes literally—on how to shift weight or where to look. He had this way of explaining things that made sense without feeling like school. At one point he pointed out a family cheering each other from the lift; “That’s how you know you’re doing it right,” he joked. My partner wiped out once (okay, twice), but Luca just laughed and helped her up without making it weird. There was this moment when I finally managed a smooth turn—I caught the sun glinting off the snow and felt this tiny surge of pride. Not huge, but enough to want more.

The three hours zipped by faster than I expected. We stopped once for water and Luca told us about his favorite childhood run—he even showed us where he’d hidden snacks as a kid (I guess Swiss kids do that?). By the end, my legs were jelly but I wasn’t ready to leave yet. It’s funny how quickly you go from awkward beginner to wanting just one more try. If you’re thinking about a private ski lesson in Zermatt, especially around Sunnegga, don’t overthink it—just go for it. You’ll probably laugh at yourself at least once.
