A few months ago, I spent a Sunday at the Ice House in Hackensack, New Jersey to cover the 2008 Adult Training Camp. The camp was well underway and it was really neat to see regular adult skaters being surrounded by the elite coaches, choreographers and skaters of our time. We're talking Nikolai Morozov, Robin Wagner, Stanislav Leonovich, Oksana Baiul, Angela Maxwell, and many others, who were teaching classes in spins, jumps and footwork. The three-day camp also includes off-ice conditioning, ballet and stretch classes, taught by Christine DeVito, a former Broadway dancer. Craig Maurizi has been running the camp since it's inception in 2001 and every year, he's so pleased to see so many returning to the Ice House camp as well as the new faces that come from as far away as England. Next summer I will definitely treat myself to the Ice House experience by being a camper myself!
