Originally from London, Skye made her way to Japan in 2018 and was captivated by Hokkaido’s rhythm, energy, and deep connection to nature. Since then, she’s built a life in Niseko with her young family, weaving together her passions for snowboarding, movement, wellness, and the outdoors. With a background that spans dance, science, yoga, and coaching, Skye brings a dynamic and holistic approach to everything she does.

Skye is passionate about unlocking her students’ potential—whether it’s guiding first-timers down their first green run or helping more advanced riders develop the skills to confidently explore Hokkaido’s legendary powder and tree runs. She thrives on progression and loves sparking the kind of confidence that transforms a day on the snow into a lifelong love of riding. Her teaching is intuitive, energizing, and grounded in years of experience, blending technical expertise with a deep understanding of movement and mindset.

While she has a natural gift for working with children—having introduced her daughter to snowboarding at just one and half—Skye’s coaching style resonates with riders of all ages. Her goal is always the same: to help you feel strong, present, and empowered on your board, so you can discover the magic of exploring the mountain with freedom.

Off the slopes, Skye is a qualified Vinyasa Yoga instructor, a fitness trainer, and holds a First-Class Honours degree in Dance Performance and Science. Her yoga and movement background offers guests the chance to deepen their mountain experience with pre-ride mobility sessions, post-ride recovery, or fully tailored wellness days that incorporate yoga, breathwork, and even onsen visits.

Whether you’re chasing your first turns, looking to ride the trees, or seeking a restorative day off the hill, Skye’s offerings are both supportive and deeply memorable.
