2020 Custom Elite Camp 

Extremely Popular 1-week camp for travel ’05 midgets, bantams, peewees, & squirts. The only totally customizable camp of it’s kind (that we know of). Each day is singularly focused; that means every single drill and bit of instruction, both on and off the ice, is designed to make that one skill of the day better. The skill is different each day  (Monday is Explosive Speed, Wednesday is React Day etc.). Players can sign up for just 1 day or all 5! July 13-17, Ashburn Ice House.

2019 Pay As You Go Private Lessons

BELOW IS 2019 SUMMER- CHECK BACK SOON FOR 2020 INFORMATION

Primarily available for skaters that are not qualified for our other ColdRush summer instruction programs, the “Pay as You Go Private Lessons” will be available with the ColdRush team of instructors on Public Sessions and Stick and Shoots at the Ashburn Ice House. Perfect for mini-mites, teens new to hockey, adult players, and competitive players that want a lesson or two to fine tune a specific skill. Wendy Marco will not personally be offering private lessons this summer, but each of her instructors began as one of her students, is an accomplished player of impeccable personal character that is trained in teaching her techniques.

2019 Summer Lessons have ended. They will return in 2020!

By signing up you are NOT committing to lessons at this time.
You are just putting your email address on our private lesson update list. Throughout the summer we will send this list a weekly message with available open lessons for the following week. If you want to take one of those lessons you will be able to register and pay at that time. 

 

Explosive Speed Camp

The Explosive Speed Camp is NOT officially a ColdRush program, and you can not register for it on this website… however, Wendy Marco designed and is still the lead instructor for this famous Ashburn Ice House camp.  Here’s the backstory….LONG, LONG, AGO, a couple years before Wendy was offering her own ColdRush camps, she had this idea to create a camp that didn’t try to teach every hockey skill in one week, but instead focused exclusively on one single skill, explosive forward short burst speed. Every drill, every exercise, for the entire week all exclusively focused on making the skaters faster. She wasn’t in a position to rent the ice back then, so instead she talked the Ashburn Ice House into letting her run the camp through their Power Play School. Explosive Speed Camp was born, and it was ENORMOUSLY SUCCESSFUL! It turns out that when you spend an entire week working on just one single skill, you actually get a whole bunch better at that skill!  The camp has earned a tremendous reputation and has sold out just about every single year since it was first offered (sometime around 2002). EXPLOSIVE SPEED is today, as it has always been, an Ashburn Ice House Power Play Camp. Wendy Marco does not administrate the camp in any way, but she is the lead coach for this 1 week speed camp.
