Student Orientation and Start of Semester 2

The 2nd Semester brings students to Japan. Their experience will start in Hakuba, travelling from Tokyo into the heart of the Japanese Alps. Based in Hakuba, the team will continue working on freestyle progression at Hakuba47 before heading north to Hokkaido. The team will transition from Tokyo Haneda to New Chitose in Hokkaido by air, using New Chitose as both their gateway to Northern Japan and their departure airport at the end of the quarter. There, they will explore the world-class resorts of Niseko and Rusutsu, experiencing Japan’s legendary powder and diverse terrain. Off the snow, students will immerse themselves in Japanese culture through local food, traditions, and the unique mountain communities of Japan.
