Master Excellence In Skating

2023/24 ISPSS PROGRAM INSTRUCTORS

The ISPSS will offer power skating instruction to hockey and ringette skaters in Stratford. The program will be taught by two very skilled instructors.

Power skating is a program that is designed to improve and master skating techniques for both hockey and ringette players. Power Skating provides skaters with a session to focus on their skating abilities, which can then be transferred to hockey practices and games.

It takes time, practice and dedication to become an excellent skater. Power skating is not only for straight line acceleration but for all skating skill areas, backward skating, tight glide turns, forward/backward crossovers, etc.
