As a child, Paul learnt to ski on dry slopes and soon became a member of his local the race team in Brentwood, Essex. From the age of 6 to 15 he travelled the UK competing.
His love for snow sports started in 2003 where he spent his first winter season in the 3 Valleys. This is where he trained to become a ski Instructor and where he has spent most of his career.
Paul gained his BASI ISTD qualification in 2010 and since then he has built great relationships with our clients, most returning year after year.
Interesting Fact: Paul’s passion in the summer is cycling. He takes up numerous cycle races, one of which is The Marmot- very famous in the Alps!
Hi I am Alice and I am from Predazzo, a small town in the Italian Dolomites. I started skiing when I was a child at my hometown ski club. After years of races, training amd exam I became a ski instructor at the age of 21.
Since I was a child my father would share his passion for the mountain. I really enjoys ski touring in the winter and climbing,biking or hiking during the rest of the year.
Interesting fact: I also have another passion, photography! I love to document all my travels & adventures. In my spare time you will always see me with a professional camera in hand!
Ciao! Nice to meet you! My name is Alberto..
Here I am: back to the Three Valleys, where for the first time in my life I fell in love with snow! In fact, here I learned to ski when I was 3 during a family holiday and since then I’ve never stopped having fun in the mountains.
In my career as a skier I enjoyed many different disciplines -snowboarding included- and I went from FIS competitions to ski mountaineering and freeriding. Now I’m a “maestro di sci” (equivalent to BASI level 4 ISTD) and federal ski coach, but I vividly remember what my first steps on the snow were, as well as the joy (and patience) of those who were my mentors: exactly what I would like to be in my turn!
Interesting facts: during the night you may find me cooking delicious Italian food for my friends or in front of my laptop while studying for my degree in Economy. In the summer I work as a mountain bike guide and sometimes I find myself involved in ultracycling races and adventures!
Giulia started skiing in Sauze d’ Oulx with her dad when she was 4 years old. From then Giulia totally fell in love with the mountains.
At the age of 10 she joined the local ski club and at 17 years old Giulia started to take part in competitions. Julia moved her life from the city to the mountain to stay as close as possible to the snow and continue her dream.
At the age of only 19 years old Giulia passed her ski instructor exam and since then has traveled the world with her career.
‘It’s amazing how I can travel and follow my passions at the same time. I love doing ski touring and skiing in off piste’.
Interesting fact: Giulia loves the winter so much she does double winter seasons. She spends her winter in France and during the summer in Chile.
