Mario has done a great job getting going with his Waterski training for the first month of his 6 month stay in the US. He has really become part of our family and the kids have made him their big brother they love him!
Mario's English has progressed fantastically since he arrived in January.

The thing I love most about what we do, is the opportunity we have to meet so many great people and families from all over the world!

This week we've had two fantastic families from Canada spending time with us on and off the water. This sport of water skiing attracts great people and from that, great friendships develop. Having a great time on and off the water this season.



Congratulations Danny for running the slalom course for the first time and making 3 times back to back!

Feb 19th and we have 3 great friends from from Poland, Peter Szymanski came to ski here last year and has now returned with two friends Mario and Adam. Both Mario and Adam came here to try water skiing for the first time, they both got up first time on the rope behind the boat! Great skiing guys, Polish champions in the making.

Adam was nerves at first but he was amazing first time out and up on the water!

It's Thursday morning February 18th and it's a beautiful day by the lake. It's a little cooler than normal, but our large Cypress trees shelter the course perfectly from the cool wind.
Our two families from Canada are loving the conditions and having a blast working on their new technique on the water.



Danny is so close to making the slalom course for the first time and he's so excited!




Having a great time on the water

Location:Featured Student

Winter is dragging on this year, but that is not stopping Darren McDonald and Danny Szakacs from Canada. They are both in town for the week with their families visiting theme parks and getting a little time in the slalom course. Darren is working on a new handle grip, better direction and much better balance through his offside turn. Danny is actually learning to run the course for the first time, he has got very close in only 3 sets and is making 1,3,4, 5 & 6 and I predict we will have him through a complete course in the next sets or two. Great skiing guys!
Darren got his drysuit and Danny wants to use it, the shorty is coming up a little short this week.

Our kids have had a busy weekend off and on the water, first picture shows Finnley at gymnastics, Sam has been riding his wakeboard and ripping up the slalom course even in the cold weather and Finnley and her little friend Finnlay built a run for the the Guinea pigs Chip & Gucci.
Finnley also learnt to ride her 2 wheel bike without her stabilizers on!

Mario Andres is on the water!

Mario Andres Mustafer from Peru came to Orlando in early January to spend six months living with our English family, to go to an English speaking school and also to be able to train on his water skiing after school. Unfortunately Mario fell sick prior to arriving in Orlando and he has only now been given the all clear to start training in physical sports. You should have seen his face yesterday when he finally got the all clear to take to the water and start his training.

Glen Bowker, Student of the Day

Glen Dropped in again today after skiing here last on Christmas day, Glen is from Toronto Canada and in town for a business conference, a perfect excuse for a ski ride mid Canadian winter. After one set on Christmas day, a theory set on the dock and another set on the lake today, Glen is really starting put some great turns together with much more efficiency across the course. Great skiing Glen, you are ready for that new Insta Slalom course you and your brother plan to put in your lake this summer. Have a great time on the water with your Bro in 2010!

Kevin Barker, Student of the Week

Kevin Barker came to ski with us having never been to ski school before. Kevin first skied at a young age and is now coming back to learn more with his young family, now that he is married with 2 young children.
Kevin is an avid motorcycle rider and ice hockey player, but is ready to spend more time on the water in 2010.



Kevin looking in great position and control on his ski now, he's ready for a great season of water with his family. We are looking forward to the whole family returning in March.



Great Skiing this week Kevin!

UK Mona Vie soft launch

I was recently in Birmingham England for the stage 2 soft launch of Mona Vie for the UK, the official launch date has now been released and will take place at the ICC in Birmingham on the 8th May. With the UK Mona Vie market only having been open for a few short months and given the growth we have already seen with the distributor base across the country, we expect there to be well over 5000 plus involved by the time the official launch comes around in May.



It was also a Great pleasure to liston to and meet Daley Thompson in Birmingham, Daley has been drinking the juice since he was introduced to Mona Vie through a Olympion friend and loves the product.
