Our Story
We’re Nick and Shannon,
What began as a passion project has evolved into something more. We’re proud of where we’ve been and even more excited for what’s ahead.
“Our journey has been anything but ordinary. Through every step, we've focused on staying true to our values and making space for meaningful, lasting work.”
Shan and Nick have long excelled at designing environments where families can engage, grow, and strengthen connections together. Shaped by more than a decade of global travel — and a world moving faster than ever — their belief is simple: community matters, and family experiences should be grounded in shared values, not distraction.
Health and wellbeing sit at the heart of everything they do. As lifelong advocates of movement and vitality, Nick and Shan previously owned and operated a holistic training facility in Australia. Their combined qualifications span strength and conditioning, performance training, nutrition, and wellbeing — with Shan also certified in breathwork, somatics, trauma healing, and women’s health.
Nick and Shan will be your hosts, joined by their children, Miss M (12) and Little H (9). As a true winter and mountain family, they bring both lived experience and quiet expertise to every gathering.
‘The Good Life Mountain Club’ - Winter Edition Experiences are designed for families who ski or snowboard at an intermediate to advanced level, with beginner options thoughtfully arranged through trusted local ski schools. The aim is confidence, progression, and the freedom to truly enjoy time on the mountain — at every stage.
For those seeking depth and mastery, Nick’s experience in the ski and snowboard world spans a lifetime. Having experienced over 80 winter seasons, decades of instruction across all levels, and roles including Austrian Ski Instructor Examiner, National Team Coach, Athlete Performance Manager and more, his knowledge is both extensive and instinctive.
Together, Shan & Nick offer more than guidance. They offer care, credibility, and an environment where families feel supported — on the mountain and beyond.
