About me

Ski Instructor

Tiziano 'Tizzi'

My passion for skiing began when I was just three years old. I still have a photo of me on skis at that age, and from that moment on, skiing became a natural part of my life.

Growing up in Cortina d’Ampezzo, every afternoon after school was spent on the slopes.

Over the years, this passion developed into competitive skiing. I raced at a high level and came very close to the Italian national ski team. At the same time, I discovered another lifelong vocation: teaching and sharing my love for the mountains.

I later became a ski instructor in Cortina d’Ampezzo and spent many winters teaching every day with Scuola Sci Azzurra Cortina, one of the most respected ski schools in the Dolomites. In the summer months, I also worked as a ski instructor on the Marmolada Glacier, allowing me to ski and teach year-round and gain deep experience in all snow conditions.

After more than 40 years of experience as a ski instructor in Cortina and throughout the Dolomites, skiing is not just my profession, it is my life.

One Love
One Passion

 

Over the years, this passion developed into competitive skiing. I raced at a high level and came very close to the Italian National Ski Team. At the same time, I discovered another lifelong vocation: teaching and sharing my love for the mountains.

I joined the local ski club of Cortina at the age of eight, training several times a week. From the age of eleven, my training intensified significantly, with daily sessions under the guidance of my coach Gildo Siorpaes. During those years, I also trained extensively throughout the summer, building a strong technical and athletic foundation.

What motivates me most is seeing people improve, gain confidence and truly enjoy the mountains. Over the decades, I have taught children, adults, families and international guests from all over the world, offering private ski lessons in Cortina tailored to every level, from beginners to expert skiers.

Today, I work together with my two sons, Sebastiano and Michelangelo, continuing a family tradition deeply rooted in the mountains. Together, we offer a complete and personalised mountain experience in Cortina and the Dolomites: from private ski lessons and technical coaching to ski touring, Dolomites itineraries, mountain bike instruction, guided tours and outdoor experiences throughout the year.

Sebastiano 'Seba'

Sebastiano followed a high-level competitive skiing path, racing at national level. His strong technical background allows him to work with advanced skiers and performance-oriented clients. He is also a certified mountain bike instructor, offering guided MTB tours and technical coaching in the Dolomites during the summer season.

Michelangelo 'Coco'

Michelangelo is an excellent skier who also competed in ski races during his early years. He later chose to focus on ice hockey, developing strong athletic ability, coordination, and team discipline, before returning fully to the mountains as a ski instructor. His background makes him particularly effective with young skiers, teenagers and active adults.
