Welcome to Girls On The Piste, your weekly ski fix with Emma Woodward and Bella Syme.

Bella lived in Verbier for over a decade coaching freeride and is off-piste obsessed. She founded ALS Ski in 2013 - a travel and concierge company organising incredible ski experiences and events. Emma has worked in the travel and mainly ski industry for most of her career, and lived in Val d'Isere and Verbier working in some of the top chalets in the world. They both now look after a number of the wealthiest and most demanding public figures, fulfilling wildly challenging and exciting travel requests throughout the Alps and beyond.
