Julia Down Julia Down
Julia is a BASI and Austrian qualified ski instructor, Alpine Development Coach, and BASI Level 1 Adaptive Instructor.

She will be available for MOM instruction/coaching weeks in Austria and Italy for the 2009/10 season.

Julia has instructed in some of Austria’s top ski resorts which include three seasons spent in the Arlberg and Galtür. She has a great sense of humour and makes it her priority to create a fun environment in which her clients are relaxed, hopefully smiling and best of all laughing!

Ski teaching is the perfect job for Julia as she gets to spend all of her time in the mountains, sharing her passion for the sport with her clients and helping them to learn and develop new skills.

Julia who first skied at the age of eight, has been obsessed with the mountains and skiing ever since. At the age of nine she even wrote to Jim’ll Fix it to ask if he could fix it for her to ski with Martin Bell for the day — a geography degree and a dozen ski seasons later she is still waiting for a reply from Jimmy!

Julia is a year round fitness fanatic! In summer she spends her time hiking, running, and cycling. You will find her out cross-country skiing when she has spare time in the winter.
