Hi, I'm Anika! Originally from Lake Tahoe in Northern California, I've been skiing since I was just two years old. Growing up surrounded by the mountains, skiing quickly became a huge part of my life, and I'm so excited to be spending my second winter season in Verbier sharing that passion with others.

‍

My background is in competitive moguls and big mountain skiing, which taught me to love challenging terrain, exploring new possibilities and constantly pushing myself to improve. Whether it's finding the perfect line through the bumps, skiing fresh powder or simply enjoying a beautiful day on the mountain, I'm happiest when I'm on skis.

‍

As an instructor, I particularly love working with children and creating lessons that are full of energy, encouragement and fun. I believe that building confidence and developing a genuine love for skiing are just as important as improving technique. There's nothing more rewarding than watching someone overcome a challenge and realise what they're capable of.

‍

I'm equally comfortable working with more advanced skiers who want to develop their skills, explore new terrain or become more confident in challenging conditions. My experience in moguls and big mountain skiing has given me a real appreciation for the technical and adventurous sides of the sport, and I love sharing that enthusiasm with my clients.

‍

For me, skiing is about much more than technique. It's about the people you meet, the places you explore and the memories you make along the way. I love those wild, stormy days when the snow is falling and the wind is biting at your cheeks, but nothing quite beats a sunny spring day cruising through soft snow with friends.

‍

When I'm not skiing, you'll usually find me mountain biking, hiking, swimming, painting or travelling somewhere new. I'm also finishing my university degree in Business Administration, with a focus on entrepreneurship and finance.

‍

Above all, I want every lesson to leave you smiling, feeling accomplished and already looking forward to your next adventure on the mountain!
