WE BELIEVE IN SKI RACERS

Burke Mountain Academy exists to champion ski racers chasing greatness. Our ambition is to be the best ski academy in the world, measured not just by results, but by how we develop athletes over time.

Founded in 1970 as the nation’s first elite ski academy, BMA has been at the forefront of ski racing innovation for more than five decades. With campuses in East Burke, Vermont, and Sterzing, Italy, we provide access to world-class training environments in both North America and Europe. Our program combines comprehensive academics with the demands of high-performance ski racing, supporting the long-term development of each student-athlete.

BMA was created by and for truly dedicated ski racers. We seek out student-athletes who are ready to fully invest in their potential. That means a culture built on hard work, accountability, and a willingness to take risks. Burkies embrace adversity as part of the process and focus on effort, consistency, and long-term development within a community built on trust.
