Power skating means that you utilize proper edges so that movement becomes intuitive. This allows a skater to have natural speed, agility, power, and endurance that will ultimately result in tight, quick movements.
Many hockey players, learn most of their skills through trial and error. Unfortunately, this method often results in skaters with a lack of fundamentals. The players may reach a point where they no longer improve.
Aimée works with beginner skaters as well as strong, advanced players and can help rebuild their skills with sound fundamental theory and progressive training to ensure consistent skill development.
This approach provides the skating foundation in which all other hockey game skills can be built.
Aimée aims to establish the biomechanics of proper muscle movement with intentional skill drills, so that skaters can embody these attributes as they develop and evolve as hockey players and the elements become second nature.
