The Apex2100 International Ski Academy has been created to become the world’s leading ski academy for young skiers.

We aim to develop internationally educated, world-class skiers, with great character, who pursue lifelong excellence through joy, passion and hard work. Based in Tignes, France at 2100m, we provide talented skiers with world class learning, training and performance programmes to help create future Olympic and World Champions.

The Apex programme is led by two of the world's leading experts in high performance sport. The ski programme is led by Alpine Performance Director, Sasha Rearick, who joined the academy after 18 years with the US Ski Team, many of them as Head Coach. Director of Sport, Sir Clive Woodward oversees the overall programme at the academy. Sir Clive was England’s 2003 World Cup Winning Head Coach and the Team GB Director of Sport at London 2012 Olympic Games.

Designed to nurture hard working 10-21 year olds from across the world. We are committed to supporting athletes based on their ability and potential. Apex and its charitable entities were created with the aim to make a small surplus. This surplus will be 100% reinvested into the academy in the form of needs-based bursaries and scholarships for our best performing athletes and those showing potential.
