Peak Ice Carte Blanche

What Peak Ice Carte Blanche does

Peak Ice Carte Blanche (operating as Peak Ice Camps) is a founder-operated business running international figure skating camps for competitive and aspiring competitive youth skaters. The program is structured around intensive seasonal training at two European venues — Courmayeur, Italy (June 15 – July 4, 2026) and Angers, France (July 6 – August 15, 2026) — with daily on-ice and off-ice sessions, group choreography lessons, optional private lessons with named coaches, embedded physiotherapy, and meals at the venue's Ice Café. Participants are placed into skill-based training groups after coach review on the first day of each camp week.

The company distributes the entire post-registration experience through a proprietary mobile application, the Peak Ice App, which handles private lesson booking, distribution of personalized and detailed schedules, and real-time operational updates. All camp logistics — schedules, coach preferences, physiotherapist bookings — flow through this app rather than email, which the company cites as a clarity and accuracy feature. The coaching roster is led by Founder/CEO Benoit Richaud and Head Technical Director Cédric Tour, with additional specialists in technique, dance, and physiotherapy.

Peak Ice is a direct-to-consumer business monetizing one-time camp registration fees, with optional incremental revenue from private lessons booked through the app approximately one week before each camp. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; prospective customers are routed to email inquiries. The company markets primarily through organic social channels (Instagram, Facebook, YouTube) and community testimonials, and serves a distributed base of individual consumers — parents and skaters — across 70+ nationalities, with 1,500+ lifetime attendees accumulated over 7+ years of operation. The entity is privately held, has no institutional funding, no parent company, and is operated as a sole proprietorship under founder Benoit Richaud.
