Overview
Burke Mountain Academy (BMA), located in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont in Caledonia County, is a full-year private college-preparatory school that educates and trains alpine ski racing athletes on the slopes of nearby Burke Mountain Ski Area.
The school was founded in 1970 when “Martha Coughlin approached coach Warren Witherell seeking year-round training to help her achieve her dream of being named to the U.S. Ski Team.” It was the first ski academy in North America. In 2020, there are numerous ski academies in the U.S. and Canada. BMA has, in addition to alpine ski racers, trained Nordic skiers throughout the school’s 50 year history. As of 2020, the Nordic ski program is on hold.
