Resort: Engelberg

I’ve been lucky enough to spend the last 18 winter seasons skiing, coaching and teaching around the world. With 14 years of ski instruction and 17 years of coaching experience, I’ve worked with skiers of all ages and abilities, from those just starting out to experienced skiers looking to take their skiing to the next level. I believe good communication is a big part of great coaching.

Everyone learns differently, so I take the time to understand what you want to achieve and find the approach that works best for you. Whether it’s building confidence, improving technique, tackling new terrain or simply having more fun on skis, I’ll make sure your time on the mountain is enjoyable as well as productive.

I’m a Level 4 Ski Instructor with an ISIA Card, hold the Swiss Brevet Federal and am an IASI Alpine Educator and Examiner. I’ve also been fortunate enough to be part of the Interski Team in 2019 and 2023, and have spent 12 winters as a Head of Training. Most importantly, I love seeing people progress and have those moments where everything just clicks. My aim is to help you become a better, more confident skier while making sure you have a great time along the way.

I grew up in Denmark and started skiing at the age of 10 in Tignes. Over the past two years, I’ve gained experience working as a ski instructor in Engelberg, teaching both beginners and more advanced skiers. Living in Switzerland allows me to share my love for the mountains all year round.

Outside of skiing, I enjoy cycling and strength training, which help me stay fit and energetic on the slopes. I bring enthusiasm, patience, and a supportive approach to every lesson. I’m especially great with beginners, helping them gain confidence and discover the joy of skiing, but I also enjoy working with experienced skiers to refine their technique and take their skills to the next level.

Daire

Joined Supreme in: 2025
Resort: Engelberg

I am an experienced ski instructor with a lifelong passion for snowsports, having started skiing more than 35 years ago. With a strong background in coaching, leadership, and snowsports education, I bring a calm, supportive, and technique-focused approach to helping skiers of all levels progress with confidence.

I have taught across Europe and Japan, working with everyone from beginners to advanced skiers looking to refine performance, efficiency, and mountain awareness. I specialise in building strong foundational skills, developing balance and movement patterns, and creating positive learning experiences through clear communication and personalised coaching. I have lived in Switzerland for 14 years and Engelberg for 10 years. As a former Chair of the Irish Association of Snowsports Instructors (IASI), I contributed to the growth and professionalisation of snowsports education in Ireland and represented the association internationally at Interski.

My coaching philosophy is rooted in professionalism, safety, enjoyment, and respect for the mountain environment. Whether I’m guiding a nervous newcomer or helping an experienced skier unlock the next level, I bring patience, experience, and genuine enthusiasm to every session. When I'm not teaching skiing, my work focusses on consulting in sustainability and decarbonisation projects for both international sports organisations and humanitarian NGO's.
