 December 28, 2011 --- Breaking News: Michael Chack, US National Bronze Medalist and US National & Team member, will perform at the Winter Ice Gala on January 14.
Michael, from New York, NY, started skating at the age of 5. When he was only 11 years old he moved away from home to begin training with World & Olympic Coach, Peter Burrows. His first trip to US National Championships was at the age of 15, and by 1991 was part of the National Team in the Senior Division (when he earned a 5th-place finish at US Championships). At the Skate America International Competition later that year he landed his first triple axel in competition, and in 1993 Michael was standing on the podium when he captured the country’s bronze medal. For the next two seasons Michael was a US world competitor. Over Michael’s competitive career he won numerous qualifying and international competitions including: the World University Games, the US Olympic Festival, the Norway International (twice), the Tropee De France, and the Nebelhorn Trophy (Germany). As a professional Michael has been a lead principal performer for “Holiday on Ice” (2008 and 2010), “Broadway on Ice” (National Tour), “Disney on Ice” (World Tour), “Snoopy’s Endless Summer”, and “Celebration on Ice” (Hong Kong). He currently coaches and choreographs in the Bay Area.
