Lettie Hawkins-Hooker

I started skiing aged 4 in the French Alps. I immediately loved being on skis and soon entered the world of ski racing. Since I was 11 I have travelled across Europe ski racing and training until it was time to embark on my medical career.

Whilst studying medicine I spent time in New Zealand gaining my ski qualifications so that I could share my passion for skiing by working as a ski instructor!

I hope to continue working as an instructor and a doctor and sharing my love of teaching through both professions.

Outside work I spend my time making ceramics, enjoying live music, films, art, running, yoga and drinks with friends.

In the summer

I chase the snow whether on European glaciers or down in New Zealand. I also enjoy spending time by the sea, travelling and working as a doctor in London.

My Zermatt insider tip is:

I’ll take you to a sweet spot for an Aperol in the Italian Sun!

If I wasn't a Summit instructor:

When I’m not instructing you’ll find me working as a doctor back in the UK. 
Next on the list would be to open a vineyard in the South of France to while away the time until the next winter.

3 reasons to ski with me:

1. Whatever your level I will identify your goals and ensure that our lessons enable you to achieve them, whether that is making it down your first blue, across the border to Italy or enjoying the powder shredding the yellow runs.

2. I am sociable and love meeting new people and having a laugh, I will keep our lessons lighthearted and fun.

3. I want you to get the most out of your time in Zermatt and alongside skiing tips I will share all of my advice on eating, drinking, partying and enjoying the beauty of Zermatt!
