Growing up in North Yorkshire, I began skiing at the age of 10 in Courchevel, France, sparking a lifelong passion for the sport. Since then, I’ve worked as a ski instructor across Austria and Switzerland, including Alpendorf Ski Amadé and the Four Valleys. I’m also qualified as a raft guide, climbing instructor, and outdoor pursuits guide, giving me a broad skill set and deep appreciation for outdoor sports. Now based in Switzerland, I enjoy hiking, mountain biking, and wild swimming, exploring the beauty of the Alps beyond the ski season. My strengths as an instructor are enthusiasm, understanding, and creating fun, dynamic lessons tailored to each skier’s goals. Though I work with beginners and experts alike, I especially enjoy coaching advanced skiers to refine their skills and confidence on challenging terrain. My experience also includes guiding for a blind ski racer, where I supported his progress on the slopes while providing his partner time to focus on her own skiing.

Growing up in the French Alps, I started skiing at the age of 3 in La Clusaz. With 3 years of professional experience, I have honed my skills in Verbier, Switzerland, a premier ski destination. My strengths lie in my enthusiasm, patience, and sense of humour, which I bring to every lesson. I hold several ski instructor qualifications, including a BASI Level 2 and a Swiss Snowsports Instructor Level 2. My dual French and British heritage and fluency in both English and French allow me to connect with a diverse range of clients. My journey as a ski instructor is deeply rooted in my love for the mountains and the joy of sharing this passion with others. I am particularly adept at working with expert skiers, helping them refine their technique and push their limits. However, I also find great satisfaction in introducing beginners to the slopes, ensuring they build a solid foundation and confidence. Outside of skiing, my interests include windsurfing, ice hockey, and sailing, which keep me active and adventurous all year round.

I fell in love with skiing at an early age and I have been fortunate enough to settle in beautiful Verbier, where for a decade now, I've had the privilege of sharing my passion for skiing with enthusiasts from around the globe. My goal is to provide outstanding tuition to skiers of all ages and skill levels. Whether you're an experienced off-piste adventurer or it is your first time on snow, I always strive to create a fun and safe learning environment for you. I love teaching children and I ensure their lessons are nothing short of unforgettable. Your journey on the slopes is unique, and I believe your lessons should reflect that. Each session will be tailored to your specific needs, ensuring a truly personalised service. Skiing isn't just about the slopes; it's about the complete mountain adventure. Allow me to show you the hidden gems - the best places to dine, après-ski, and experience the atmosphere. I'll be your guide to making every moment in Verbier memorable.. When summer graces the mountains, you'll find me trading in my skis for gardening gloves as I am a landscaping gardener between ski seasons. I can't wait to hit the slopes with you and share the joy of skiing!

The Verbier ski area is made up of 3 sectors that are accessible from the town. The Verbier sector has fantastic pistes, a separate dedicated beginner area at Les Esserts and a snow park and ski cross in La Chaux. The Savoleyres/La Tzoumaz sector is known for its quiet and gentle blue runs and boasts one of the longest sledge runs in Switzerland at 5km. Across the valley and linked by gondola from the main hub at Medran, Bruson is the smallest and quietest of the 3, famous for its empty treelined slopes and quaint atmosphere. Verbier is linked by cable car to the resorts of Nendaz, Veysonnaz and Thyon to form the vast 4 Vallees network.
