powder fields of Japan and Alaska to the classic slopes of Canada and Europe. Since 2010, he has made Val d’Isère his home, captivated by the diversity of its terrain and the spirit of its
mountains. During the summer, he runs a family mountain refuge in his native valley, staying connected to the rhythm of alpine life all year round.

Over 17 years of teaching, she has worked in incredible destinations — including two winters in Cortina and five summers across Australia, New Zealand, and Chile. After 13 years with Oxygène in Val d’Isère, she chose to continue her journey as an independent instructor two years ago.Beyond skiing, Pamela is passionate about yoga and holistic well-being. She completed her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in Chamonix (2018) and a 300-hour advanced training in India (2023), where she also began exploring sound healing. Now based in Val

ENRICO
Enrico grew up in the heart of the Italian Alps, in the ski resort of Sauze d’Oulx, where winter was more a way of life than a season. He joined the local racing club as a child, quickly developing the drive and discipline that would define his skiing career. After years of
competition, Enrico traded the starting gate for the coaching lane, becoming a certified ski instructor and racing coach. His love for the mountains soon drew him beyond the racecourse and into the backcountry, where he finds his true element — exploring untouched snow, wide- open spaces, and that unique sense of freedom that only the mountains can offer. He is now pursuing his next goal: becoming a certified Mountain Guide.Over the years, Enrico has coached athletes across Italy and South America, and has had the honor of working with the U.S. Ski Team and Thomas Vonn at West Mountain Racing in New York. Since 2021, he has made his home in Val d’Isère, in the French Alps — a place where world-class skiing meets refined alpine culture, and where Enrico continues to share his passion for both racing and freeride skiing.
