JAPAN'S #1 RESORT

As the bitter Siberian winds blast the Japanese Alps, a natural phenomenon occurs creating some of the world’s best annual snowfall. Home to the snow resort of Niseko United, the island of Hokkaido has been officially crowned the Powder Capital of the World.  

Niseko is without doubt Japan’s premier ski destination and the proud recipient of many international awards. Nestled in the mountains two hours east of the city of Sapporo, Niseko United is a serious competitor on the global snow stage making it the ultimate choice for a ski instructor internship or snowboard instructor internship.
