Farnham Glacier High Performance & Speed Camp - Michel Pratte - July 2007 - limited to 16 racers
Mt. Tremblant 2007 Masters Training Promotion - Dave Strang comments "I and several other Masters racers from New England and New York attended the December Pratte camp at Tremblant and found it to be well worth the price. Given the paucity of snow all over the Northeast, they did an excellent job giving us hill space. Michel himself was our coach and was superb. I would highly recommend any of his camps and plan on going back next year."
Mt Tremblant Exclusive Training Weekend - Michel Pratte - February 13-15, 2007
Mt. Southington Masters Training - Finally Masters Training will start this Tuesday from 6:30-8:30 at Mount Southington. If you prepaid your name should be on a list in the Office and you can pick up your ticket. If you have not paid, you can pay the $35.00 one night fee each night. If you plan on racing Tuesday in the CISL league, sign up for masters first, get your ticket, and show them your ticket at CISL registration, and you will only pay $11.00 to race. We will be running Slalom. You can pick up your ticket as early as 5:00 PM and ski for a while before training if you like. I strongly suggest you have pole guards, shin guards, a helmet and face guard. It is not required to run Slalom, but It can prevent some injuries. We should be on for 5 Tuesday nights unless the weather changes drastically again.

Mount Bachelor Alpine Masters Program - A number of the New England Masters have been asking me what I have been doing and may be interested in the attached article about the Masters program at Mt Bachelor in Oregon that I have been in. We train in the gates from nine to twelve or later five days a week; the people are congenial, the coaching is excellent, the cost is reasonable, and the mountain has a large number of good trails for free skiing. Accommodations are in Bend; I stay at and like the Mill Inn Bed and Breakfast in Bend, which is clean, comfortable and reasonable (541 389-9198). Regards, Bob Butler
Training offered by Brandon Dyksterhouse - check out www.dstyleracing.com
Symmetry in Motion by Poulin Performance - The purpose of Symmetry in Motion is to create balanced, injury free skiers. For decades ski coaches and instructors have been aware of differences from one turn to the other. This difference was always put down to strength alone, but now we are able to see how musculo-skeletal alignment affects skiing and sets us up for asymmetrical strength development in very specific patterns. Click here for details.
Middlebury Snow Bowl - For further information about master's training events offered by The Middlebury Ski Club, please visit our newly launched website at www.middskiclub.org. We'll be adding a special link on the home page specifically for masters to go directly to the masters training page.
