Mike Kirk
Ski Instructor
Ski Resort: Val d’Isere
Mike enjoyed family ski holidays to France and Switzerland before starting his career as a ski instructor at The Snow Centre, Hemel Hempstead in 2009. Since then, he has worked in Canada, Switzerland and France where he was able to refine his technical skills and gain wide-ranging experience. It was in Whistler BC that he developed a passion for off-piste and freestyle skiing. He has spent the last nine winter seasons in Val d’Isère and takes pride in being a versatile instructor accustomed to teachings clients of all ages and abilities.
“Being able to share my passion for skiing and the mountains with new or returning clients has always been incredibly rewarding. I really enjoy seeing my clients progress and achieve their full potential. Helping them learn new skills that they can be proud of and which enhance their love of skiing is extremely satisfying.”
When I’m not skiing I enjoy going to the gym and during the summer i really enjoy water sports particularly spearfishing and surfing.
