This program consists of one hour of ice time a week, in which skaters will rotate through stations led by our Head of Hockey Development or Head Hockey Instructor, and either Mary Yarush or one of our lead figure skating instructors. 

  • Stations will include work on using all four edges of your skate blades, full-stride extension, recovery, balance, pivots, crossovers, tight turns, backwards skating, agility, and stops, as well as shooting, puck control, and other essential hockey skills.
  • Hockey-specific drills will push skaters outside their comfort zones, challenging them to learn effective skating techniques along with proper body and stick positioning in drills that replicate game situations. Concepts introduced will include under handling, puck protection, off-balance shooting, and more.
  • Instant feedback and correction will be provided in small group sizes, where the ratio will not exceed 1:4 (4 participants to each instructor).
  • As this program involves advanced drills, applications are subject to review to ensure suitability for the program
