Chaparral will be closed May 23 through June 5 for a mandatory ice maintenance (an annual occurrence which hasn’t actually been done since the rink opened several years ago). While this is happening, I’d like to check in with my competitors at least twice over the break and have everyone do an off-ice clinic to go over programs and how to practice them at home.
And for my non-competitors, I’ll have a separate clinic at some point for you guys to go over off-ice jumping and stretching techniques. Some of you have a routine; others don’t, and I want to make sure everyone knows what they can do at home and for the rest of your days as a skater to make you stronger, more powerful, and more flexible.

here. All details about the competition are on Austin FSC’s
website.
If you’re not sure what to sign up for or have trouble with the form, let me know. Deadline to register is MAY 7. I’ll try to send another reminder as the deadline gets closer, but mark your calendars!

I’m not sure how the eggs will be hidden on the ice…but apparently there will be an egg hunt. Come check it out tomorrow night!
