CEHA camps are usually between 1-5 days, and run mostly in Braunlage or Bad Sachsa
Niedersachsen, Germany. Both towns are in the beautiful Harz national park.
The camps are very intense skill development, usually consisting of 4 hours a day of ice, as well as off ice programs, including a top off ice stickhandling program.
 Equally important for us, is helping the kids develop a healthy, positive attitude, as well as learning the value of healthy nutrition.
We believe in helping the athletes to reach their full potential as athletes as well as people. Many of the values they learn from us will help them in the future, in everyday life.
Attributes such as positive thinking, healthy self-confidence, learning the value of hard work, discipline, respect, being humble, and teamwork,
are all very important values that we teach and stress.
