My name is Emma Peters, a 24 years-old brought up in the North-East of England. While I started skiing at my local dry ski slope at age 8, I have always been active and involved in any and every sport I could. Ravens Ski Club became my second home for many years when my brother Jack was diagnosed with cancer at a young age. It was an activity that my dad took me to in order to have time away from the hospital and simply have fun and be a kid!
My parents saw that I loved skiing and as I got older and still to this day have done everything to help me succeed. I raced in alpine events like Slalom and Giant Slalom until I found ski cross at age 16 after achieving a full ski scholarship to an international school in Switzerland. From this point I continued to train and improve my world ranking with the support on my school, Aiglon College until a British Team program was set up upon my graduation in the 2017/18 season.
I started my first World Cup races in the first year of the British team program, and was longlisted for the 2018 Winter Olympic Games. I placed 4th in the World Junior Championships in the summer of 2018 in New Zealand and from this point I have continued to progress, pushing through barriers and have achieved career best results year on year, currently ranked no.1 British ski cross athlete and number 34 in the world. My eyes were firmly set on the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics until an injury ruled me out.
I chose Future Fit because I wanted to learn from a program that gave in depth lessons that I could access from anywhere in the world. The e-learning platform is easy to use and full of knowledge. The flexibility to learn at my own pace has meant I can continue to study around my extremely busy life of training, competing and working.
