*Due to instructor schedule challenges we, unfortunately, have canceled the Late Fall Saturday lessons.
TIA has developed a highly acclaimed hockey skating skills program customized for the needs of all hockey skaters. Class emphasis is on core strength, speed, agility, form, flow, and power production. We welcome those who want to enjoy a game of pond hockey as well as those whose aspirations may include a spot on the roster of a major NHL team! This class is for hockey players who want to improve their skills! In general, each 40-minute lesson consists of 10 minutes of warm-up/practice and 30 minutes of instruction. Students are rewarded with a certificate upon completion of the session. Class instructors continuously evaluate the students' skating skills and adjust their levels as needed.
