Tucker Hockey Power Skating

Skating is to hockey what running is to soccer. Skating is the foundation upon which all other skills are built. It is the most important skill of ice hockey. The level of performance attained by a player in passing, shooting, checking and puck control are directly related to one's skating ability. The time spent improving a player's skating is a worthwhile investment due to the carry-over value to all the other aspects of the game.


Becoming a strong skater depends on a number of factors - the most important is skating technique. Other factors that enhance skating include leg strength, leg quickness, leg flexibility, balance and trunk stability.

This on ice program is designed to teach and improve hockey specific skating skills.The ice sessions will focus primarily on improving skating techniques, including balance, edge control and striding. In addition a full power skating curriculum is available and can be custom designed.The changes to a players skating ability will be accomplished through on-ice demonstrations and repetition of hockey specific skating movements to enhance balance, edge control, quickness, speed, overall skating agility and conditioning
