Skaters who want to perform their best on the ice must train off the ice. Whether you're a figure skater or an artistic roller skater, skating is a demanding sport requiring core strength, plyometric strength, balance, and flexibility. Off-ice performance training, and strength and conditioning, are great ways to fast-track your skating progress and get your results safely, quickly, and more efficiently. No matter your level, you need a combination of on-ice and off-ice training to be as successful as possible.

I became a coach to help others avoid making the mistakes that I made. I've suffered injuries, been exhausted, and frustrated because I didn't have access to the right program to achieve my goals properly, I learned everything the hard way by seeking out instruction, information, and inspiration. I share my experiences so that you don't have to learn how I did - subscribe to my channel to find the shortcuts!
