It's great to have a website dedicated to important communications and everything you need to know about the ski school. It helps both instructors and clients navigate the ski school, both organizationally and in terms of reliability and professionalism.

The only downside, in my opinion, is the complex design of the menu interface, which isn't particularly intuitive, although this is a problem that resolves itself with consistent use of the website.

We had a wonderful experience with both our children (9 and 5); the school (and particularly Prem) is responsive, organised and flexible when required. We have found every teacher to be very kind and friendly which has made the whole difference!

Top! I've been using them for over two years, and the results are incredible. At 40, and afraid to let go of my board, it was a real challenge for me. But Nicola is the best! Technique, talent, and kindness: he helped me push my limits. If you want real results, trust him and Giorgio Rocca's school! And Veronica is second to none for all the office management: always available and smiling. I adore you!

Marco is the man! To say my friend and I had an extraordinary time would be an understatement! He is incredibly skilled and patient - and also kept me relaxed.

We had the best time today and want to come back to take lessons again. So happy with this experience, thanks to Marco! He came highly recommended and lived up to his reputation for being the best.

Targeted Technical Analysis for
Shot Mastery

Padel requires unique technical execution compared to standard racquet sports. By breaking down point-of-contact, wrist firmness, kinetic chain rotation, and glass recovery angles, our coaching sessions replace bad habits with biomechanically sound, repeatable technique.

“Mastering padel technique in St. Moritz is about understanding ball physics—converting wall bounces and overhead slice variations into effortless offensive weapons.”

Technical Skills Covered

  • Bandeja vs. Víbora execution: slice overheads, spin control, and contact points
  • Glass wall mechanics: double-glass timing, bajada de pared, and corner defense
  • Net play mechanics: block volleys, chiquita soft drops, and directional placement
  • Serve & return technique: kick serve variations and low-slice return depths
  • Footwork and movement: split-step timing, lateral sliding, and recovery positioning
  • High-grade equipment testing, racket balance selection, and grip advice

Technical Coaching Focus Areas

1. Glass & Wall Mastery

Overcome hesitation around the glass. Learn to judge ball rebound trajectories, execute smooth back-glass turns, and defend double-glass corners with ease.

2. Overhead & Net Offense

Differentiate and perfect the Bandeja, Víbora, and Smash x3/x4. Fine-tune volley preparation and net-dominance geometry to finish points decisively.

3. Biomechanical Video Analysis

Incorporate high-frame-rate video analysis during your private session. Review shot mechanics frame-by-frame with your coach for immediate corrections.

Elite Certified Coaches

Our technical coaches hold elite international padel certifications with experience working alongside professional and competitive club players across Europe.

High-Altitude Performance Courts

Train on premier indoor and outdoor courts across St. Moritz and the Engadin Valley. Account for mountain altitude ball bounce dynamics with expert local guidance.

Tailored Coaching for
Every Level

Whether you are unlearning wristy tennis habits or aiming to add maximum slice decay to your víbora, we build technical progressions specific to your body mechanics and athletic goals.

Ideal For:

  • Tennis players needing to eliminate full-court swings and adapt to glass walls
  • Intermediate players hitting a plateau in wall reads and corner defense
  • Advanced competitive players refining kick smashes, víboras, and chiquitas
  • Players wanting precise biomechanical corrections to prevent elbow/shoulder strain
  • Vacationers desiring dedicated technical improvement during their St. Moritz stay
