Johanna knows what it takes to perform at a high level – alpine skiing, climbing big walls, conducting expeditions in remote locations, excelling in track and field, or running a fast 10k. Now she helps others achieve their goals in all these sports, particularly climbing and skiing.
Johanna started as a French national alpine ski racer in which she won national titles as a junior. Her best FIS performance is 63 points in slalom which speaks for how hard she worked as an athlete. Then, she dabbled in track and field for four years. She was a national finalist in the 3000m steeplechase, and her 10km time is under 38 mins.
Johanna has been crushing technical climbs and leading successful expeditions since 2017. She was a part of a 2017 expedition in El Chaltén, Patagonia, and the 2018 expedition in the Cordillera Darwin, Chile, where she successfully did two first ascents. In her climbing career, she has climbed the El Capitan’s Big Wall and has done 8b sport climbing (5.13c).
She has trained at a very high level and across many sports. She understands the fundamentals of training and how to progress in one’s goal sustainably. Now, she is a force who helps others perform at their level best in achieving their goals.
