http://dorothyhamill.com/slices/skatecamp2.htmI have a friend who was just talking about how he has a fantasy about Dorothy Hamill, but it wasn't about skating with her, lol. Nothing bad - he would just like to meet her, so I told him to sign up the for camp and enjoy the food & company.

The National Ice Centre is delighted to announce this one day development clinic on 20 March 2011 for adult skaters!
The clinic will combine on ice and off ice sessions which will provide skaters with a well rounded, technical knowledge base which is key to becoming a skilled skater.
Applications for the clinic will be accepted from skaters aged 16 and over who have already passed Skate UK level seven and have not yet passed NISA Field Moves level four, while spaces last.
Each skater will receive three hours on ice and one hour off ice tuition, and the clinic will include flexibility and jump rotation, technical skills and exercises for figure and dance, in a structured yet fun environment!
The NIC prides itself on our ability to pro-vide a challenging and supportive atmosphere for ice skating development and we are pleased to be able to extend this to our senior recreational skaters!
Price: £40. Registration is at 1.45pm, with the clinic taking place 2.30 – 8pm.

Does anyone know anything about the Grassroots week long camp, this year held near Boston? We would like to go but the airfare right now is way too much! Any pros or cons? Is it worth it?Their website is here: http://grassrootstochampions.com/
Thanks!

I've attended a few coaching seminars with Audrey Weisiger and Sheila Thelen and they were very good. They really think things through and explain technique well and consistently. You do have to look at their faculty for each seminar. Not all coaches go to every seminar, but the particular one you asked about, in Walpole, MA has a full staff. I've observed seminars with Ryan Bradley and he's a great role model and coach for young skaters, especially boys.
I've never heard a negative thing about these seminars, only praise.
Sheila ThelenSorry for the late response. I thought I had already replied, but I guess not.

The coaching staff doesn't interest me - there's not enough variety in the skating styles, other than the Moves Guru. (Who is worth the trip!)
Potential adult weekend in Chicago July 2+3. Working on details now
Ice House Adult Camp is canceled again for 2011. Looks like I have to wait another year to go to a big adult clinic near me...You have GOT TO BE KIDDING!!!! Man! We were so looking forward to this! (shuffling off to email the ladies....)
"The 2011 Adult Camp has been cancelled."
I would like to do the G2C but it's too long, too expensive, and probably too intensive for us....(and sounds like it's geared to the kids).
There have been a few G2C seminars in this area (one was just held locally) and they welcomed adults (a friend went and he said it was fantastic), but you had to be working on an axel to register (you didn't have to have landed it). I don't know if that's a seminar requirement, or a local requirement.I only just started on my lutz lol! I'm sure we'll figure something out. Last year the ladies rented a condo for a week at Ocean City, Maryland and skated at a hotel that had an ice rink.

Last year the ladies rented a condo for a week at Ocean City, Maryland and skated at a hotel that had an ice rink.The G2C has three levels, basic jumps, axles/doubles and working on triples so you would be more than fine.I would assume they would welcome adults, I think a few of the coaches are geared to working with adults.It is expensive, we wouldnt be going if I hadnt of won one registation though an auction.

If they have a seminar in our area we might consider it, otherwise we will do our "summer condo camp" which I missed last summer because of classes. I did notice that U of De is having a one-day seminar for the STARS program, might look into that.
Hope you find something!

Welcome to Lake Placid Adult Figure Skating!
You will be starting the week off on Sunday with a reception at 7pm (location TBD). Coaches will be introduced and copies of all schedules will be available. Skaters may register at the 3-5pm registration or they can wait until the reception.
Throughout the week, you can skate on any adult session that you choose. You may also choose to participate in on-ice and off-ice group classes or special seminars. Private instruction is also available and we suggest that you contact the coach of your choice prior to your arrival.
Back again this year by popular demand is the Wednesday night party! Put away your skating attire and get dressed up for a night of fun! It will be a night to remember featuring games, drinks and prizes.
The week will conclude with an Adult Exhibition followed by a reception in the Hall of Fame Room on Saturday.
If you're still deciding whether or not to come, let some other adults tell you about their experiences...
Do you know if the adult weeks are concurrent with kids camp or exculsively for adults? I would like to take a few adult classes while my daughter attends kids camp. Are the activities this week geared strictly toward adults? Thank you! -Very helpful forum, I'm glad I stumbled upon it!Yes, the adult weeks are concurrent with the kids on separate ice surfaces & with separate off-ice activities. Last time I was at LP there were several moms on the adult ice with their kids in the other program. It seems to work out really well for the whole family.
I just signed up for this adult seminar. I've only been to Sun Valley once, to train some off-ice coaches at a fitness facility called Zenergy, but that was before I started skating myself. Any recommendations about where to stay?I wish I could go! I'm back in school (grrrr!) by then, although some of the ladies at my rink were tossing around the idea of going. Not sure if they will actually do it though.
PS - according to the website, the registration deadline is coming up soon. Will I see any of you there this summer?
AHHHHH!!! Grassroots in 2 days!!! I'm so excited!I am not sure what you mean?
Haha sorry. Earlier in this thread is an ad for the camp Im goong to in two days, Grassroots to Champions. Sorry, Im just reallllly excitedWe are already here!!
