In addition to her ski instructing and personal training, Theresia’s summers are filled with outdoor activities such as stand-up paddleboarding, mountain biking, and trail running. Her deep-rooted connection to the Alps remains strong, as she travels back to Germany annually to reconnect with her family and the mountains that inspire her.
