For the past three July’s, we have invited and welcomed guest\u00a0skaters and coaches\u00a0to experience\u00a0our NEXXICE family for\u00a0a\u00a0weekend. This season we had an incredible turn out at our camp with over 100 participants from across Europe, the United States and Canada. Our training spanned from edges and turns to field moves,\u00a0synchro elements, figures (YES, figures!), theatre, ISU rules, pilates\/fitness, and sport psychology.<\/p>\n

We were so fortunate to have the creator of \u201cAnnie\u2019s Edges\u201d, Anne Schelter, share her knowledge of the glide\u00a0with\u00a0everyone who attended. Anne has an amazing ability to teach a lightness when it comes to skating; floating across the ice with complete ease. The weekend had been an incredible\u00a0opportunity for our participants\u00a0to take part and learn from Anne’s wisdom first hand.<\/p>\n

From the ISU, we had guest speaker\u00a0Philippe Maitrot (member of the ISU Synchronized Skating Technical Committee), who discussed the rule changes for the upcoming season and answered questions on and off the ice.<\/p>\n

\"Edge<\/a>

Several coaches across the NEXXICE organization assisted in our camp, including\u00a0Trish Purdue Mills (NEXXICE Junior coach),\u00a0Jennifer Beauchamp (former NEXXICE Captain & NEXXICE Novice\/Intermediate coach) and\u00a0Danyel Wright-Dykstra (former NEXXICE Senior captain & NEXXICE Novice coach). We would like to thank all of our coaches, managers, skaters,\u00a0parent volunteers and\u00a0clinicians who helped make this another fantastic weekend of learning and\u00a0fun!\u00a0We loved\u00a0reconnecting with old friends as well as meeting many ones.<\/p>\n

We hope that all of the participants had an unforgettable experience at camp this year and wish everyone the best of luck with their teams for the 2014\/2015 season. We look forward to seeing everyone again next year, but hopefully many familiar faces will make the trip back to the Burlington\/Hamilton area in April for the 2015 World Synchronized Skating Championships!<\/p>\n
