I started skiing over 18 years ago where I grew up, Toronto, ON. I always loved the sport and when I saw how fun it was for others to learn, I was inspired to provide lessons for my community.

I have 5 years of coaching experience, and have worked with people of all backgrounds and ages from toddlers at the age of 4 to adults, both in groups and solo. I gained much experience as an Instructor and On-Snow Supervisor, and later started my own development program in which members become certified coaches to assist with my programs.

This has allowed me to build the confidence needed to be a great instructor, as well as move to a new province and build a new community in the Greater Vancouver Area. My goal in the winter of 2022 was to distribute 5 star teaching of ski concepts and techniques, and there has been no shortage of that. Now, in 2023, I have created 3 programs that I'm proud to offer: Private lessons, Winter and Spring Kamp, and Women's weekly, which reinforce the power of motivational learning through group dynamics.

Approach
•Use of practical coaching starting with basic mobility skills 
•Incorporating fun exercises using the whole body
•Adapting to everyone's stage of learning (beginner, intermediate, advanced) and style to attain desired results
•Flexible toward challenges and receptive toward feedback

•Strong command in English and conversationally fluent in Russian and French
