I am exited to announce a summer off ice challenge that I am doing through the club during May, June, July and August. I know a lot of you around the world loose access to the ice during the summer months, so this challenge is designed to help you build strength, mobility and flexibility during these off-ice months. Each week day (Monday through Friday) during the month of May a new video will drop in the club with one new off ice exercise. These will be focused on a variety of things that figure skaters need... higher jumps, faster rotation, strong lower body (think sit spins or powerful stroking) Back flexibility and strength (spirals anyone??) hip rotation for things like C-Steps and Ina Bauers.

This is how the challenge will go... each day you will get a new exercise to try. You are welcome to just follow along each day and by the end of the month you will have a new bunch of ideas, and hopefully a body that is feeling good. But... if you record a little clip of you doing the exercise, and post it to the May Challenge tab in our club Community, and you do so every day for a week, you will be entered into a drawing. So, with a 4 week challenge, you have 4 chances to be entered into our drawing. If you post clips all 21 days, you will get 5 extra entries into the drawing! AND..... If on Saturday or Sunday you post a video of you doing all 5 exercises for that week you will get 2 extra entries!

What is this drawing? Well, for now, the winner will get a special Coach Julia Club sweatshirt sent to them. If I have a lot of people participate, I will probably be able to add even more cool swag to the winning drawing (I have ideas!) If you want to check out all the club swag available, you can see it here... coach-julia.myspreadshop.com

So, this off ice challenge can be a private thing that you do in your home, or you can go all the way and post your videos to our private club community. This will help everyone feel like they are part of something bigger than themselves, it will aid in motivation, and you might just get some cool swag out of it! For the exercises you will need a really sturdy chair (or box if you are using a gym), some yoga blocks amzn.to/4ugHeps, an exercise band amzn.to/4n8hwS0 (and in June you will need a spinner amzn.to/4wiJG0T).
