Information
BALTICE 2026 is an international figure skating camp bringing together motivated athletes and experienced coaches in a professional environment. The 2026 camp will feature five coaches: Aleksandra Golovkina-Dolinskė, David Richardson, Jeranjak Ipakjan, Kelly Buddery and Alisa Brantova. The programme includes on-ice training, choreography and off-ice conditioning sessions, which this year will be specifically designed for figure skaters’ development off the ice, strengthening the key qualities required for jumps, spins, skating skills and overall physical performance.
We are proud of last year’s camp, which marked an important step forward in the growth of the project. This year, we aim to raise the level of the camp even higher. Our goal is to create a high-level camp that skaters genuinely want to attend to work hard, gain experience and inspiration from different coaches, spend quality time in a like-minded environment and deepen their love for the sport. It is important for us to contribute to building a strong and conscious figure skating culture.
