Enrollment is limited to 8 teams.
Don't miss an opportunity to learn the basics of or sharpen your skills at lifts, throws, death spirals, pair spins, and unison exercises, all under the guidance of an Olympic champion who loves to teach pairs skating and understands the adult skater. Join other adult pairs for a weekend of learning and fun.

A non refundable deposit of $150 per team or $75 per person (if paying separately) is due at the time of registration; the balance is due at the conclusion of the clinic. As a guide, past clinics have cost about $200 per person excluding your transportation, hotel, and food expenses.
