Haruka Takashima

Snoopy's Skating School

Haruka Takashima is a former member of the Japan women’s national ice hockey team. "When I was a high school freshman, I was selected as a member of the Japan women’s national ice hockey team. Since then, I have played in many international competitions, including the Ice Hockey World Championships and a 2006 Winter Olympics qualifier. In that qualifier, I was the youngest member of the team and won the Most Valuable Player award. After graduating from university, I went to Europe to join top teams in the region and retired as a professional player in 2013. I was invited to study at Waseda University, one of Japan’s top universities, thanks to my achievements in international competitions, with the expectation of becoming a leader in the sports industry after graduation. I received the Azusa Ono Memorial Award, the most honorable student award, from the university upon graduation. After retiring from competitive sports, I ventured into the business world, a rather unexpected option for Japanese women athletes. I was dispatched to the Japanese Olympic Committee where I supported elite athletes who will be able to contribute to Japan’s future sporting world and society at large. I worked in the Japan Sport Council, an incorporated administrative agency. At the same time, I have energetically pursued career enhancement activities, including working as a sports commentator for the Olympic games and a lecturer on themes such as dual-career development for athletes. My last task in Japan was being part of the Tokyo Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games. I contributed to the success of competition management (Baseball/Softball) at the Tokyo Olympics. Currently, I am living in Sonoma County, CA and I want to incorporate my past experience to make ties with the sporting world between U.S. and Japan.

Daniel Johnson

Adult Hockey League 

Daniel Johnson, I was born and raised in Alpine, UT as the youngest of 9 kids. His mom was a professional figure skater so he's always had a passion for skating and hockey. Daniel graduated college from Utah Valley University and took a job working for a famous beagle named Snoopy shortly after. Daniel's hobbies and passions include hockey, basketball, surfing, cooking, art, and most importantly spending time with the amazing people in my life! There is no place he'd rather be right now than skating at the most beautiful ice arena in the world built by the wonderful Joyce Halverson Doty!
