Anna Wörner began as a teenager in alpine skiing and in 2006 became German junior runner-up in downhill skiing .

In January 2008 she made her debut in the European Cup with eighth place, shortly afterwards she made her debut in the Sierra Nevada in the World Cup , but was disqualified in this race. She achieved her first victory in the European Cup at the beginning of the next season in December 2008 in Grasgehren , beating her teammates Heidi Zacher , Julia Manhard and Alexandra Grauvogl in a four- fold German triumph. She achieved more top ten results with a podium and was fourth in the ski cross classification of the Continental Cup at the end of the season.
