My Story

Hello skiers and future skiers! My name is Tjasa and I come from Slovenia. I was born in Jesenice near a beautiful small ski resort called Kranjska Gora.

When I was 3 years old, my father put me on skis and I immediately fell in love with skiing. I started racing at 5 and raced for 9 years. After high school, I started seeking new challenges but my love for skiing was so strong that I found myself back on snow. But this time as a ski coach in my old race club where I worked for 4 years.

After that, I slowly transitioned into becoming a ski instructor as it makes me happy to teach people how to ski and see the joy on their faces when they zoom down the mountain.

Since 2014 I’ve been teaching between Austria, Slovenia and Australia and taught thousands of people how to ski. My life revolves around skiing and I can say that skiing is my love and my passion. I cannot think of a life without it. So join me on the slopes and lets have some fun together!
