Hokkaido (北海道, Hokkaidō, literally "Northern Sea Circuit") (Japanese: [hokkaꜜidoː] ( listen)), formerly known as Ezo, Yezo, Yeso, or Yesso, is the second largest island of Japan, and the largest and northernmost prefecture. The Tsugaru Strait separates Hokkaido from Honshu. The two islands are connected by the undersea railway Seikan Tunnel. The largest city on Hokkaido is its capital, Sapporo, which is also its only ordinance-designated city. About 43 km north of Hokkaido lies Sakhalin Island, Russia, whereas to its east and north-east are the disputed Kuril Islands.

We were a group of 2 in our early thirties, one who was a complete beginner and the other one had some experience though minimal. Jann was with us for the first day and on the second day, we split and had individual lessons. Jann was very patient who went all the way to teach and make sure we had the basics right. Simone gave clear instructions and also challenged me to try out some tricks which I never thought I would be able to do. By the end of the 3-hour lesson, I was able to go down the green slopes confidently by myself. It was a great experience and I'm looking forward to my next ski experience. Would return to Furano and engage FISS again!

Pawal and JB did a great job in teaching our 4 first time skiers ranging in age from 4 to 7. They were very patient over the week with them, including the children’s preference at times for building snowmen as opposed to riding the slopes!!! Thanks again.

I used Winterlab for my recent ski trip to Japan. I am an experienced and hungry skier. I go to Japan often and speak Japanese but I had never been skiing in Japan. Winterlab made my first, of many to come, experience great. Anna was super-responsive, patient, and informative from the start, and throughout. Oli, my guide and instructor, was amazing. Day 1, got a sense of my skiing but appropriate to what I wanted to do, Days 2 and 3, we just had at it. Back country, in trees, powder and more. He was also a great companion for 3 days. I highly recommend and would/will repeat!

Sam was an EXCELLENT teacher, the kids thoroughly enjoyed their time with him, and they progressed so quickly in such a short time! It was amazing how they were able to go down the reds after 3 days with him and only having had the experience of the kiddie school in Hanazone. The kids loved skiing between trees while learning the skills needed to go down the mountains. Sam made it look easy and he was always in such a great mood and super patient. We highly recommend him for families with kids, I'm sure he would have been fantastic teaching me as well. Thank you so much for assigning him to our family and we look forward to booking him and other Propeak instructors in the future. Definitely worth it!
