Mikaella Poirier

My name is Mikaella Poirier, I am 24 years old and I live on the Magdalen Islands in Quebec, Canada (a hidden paradise in the middle of the Saint Lawrence Gulf). Being an islander, the blowing salty wind on my lips, the messy hair and permanent sandy feet fueled my passion for all water activities as I grew up. Even when I am not riding, swimming, stand up paddling, wakeboarding or scuba diving, I spend most of my time outside, running, biking, and so forth. During winter, I snowkite, snowboard, and play ice hockey.

Being a physical education teacher, I am also passionate about spreading good healthy habits to everyone surrounding me. I live every day to its fullest, taking each opportunity life is giving me to learn, push my boundaries, appreciate the world we live in and discover new places and cultures. I am an eternal adventurer and traveler. I can’t stop chasing destinations to do what makes my soul shine. I am excited to be a team member at World Class Academy and to enjoy all aspects of kitesurfing and the people and lifestyle that comes along with it.
