2027 Team Raf High Performance Summer Academy

Join renowned Olympic Coach Rafael Arutyunyan, Vera Arutyunyan, Nadia Kanaeva along with all Team Raf coaches and senior skaters for three days of intensive training August 2-4, 2027. Our expectation is for you to further advance your skating skills while visiting our world class facility, thus improving your results during the upcoming competition season.

Your day will start with an Elite Edge class, followed by Jumps, Spins, with the conclusion of your ice time being a choreography segment.  After a short break your training will continue off the ice to focus on Element Positions, Stretching, and Jumps off the ice. 

Private singles lessons available at an additional fee with Team Raf coaches, along with additional GPI freestyle sessions not included in the camp.

Rafael Arutyunyan encourages your coaches to also attend the coaches clinic portion of camp, running concurrently August 2-4, 2027, to ensure your skater can continue with this progressive technique offered once back at your home facility.  Coaches will receive 50% off their registration fees if bringing two or more skaters.  Coaches can find more information and register here.

Please send a SHORT video of your skater's "most difficult jump pass done well" - AN ENTIRE JUMP PASS THAT CAPTURES SKATING SKILLS AS WELL!  This will be used to make sure your skater gets into the correct group.  Send to jpalmore@therinks.com This needs to be emailed by July 1, 2027!  Make sure to put their name in the subject of the email.
