- Nutrition Strategies
- Multi Sport Participation
- Support from parents
- Recovery Strategies
- Massage Therapy
- Physio/ Chiro
Etc...
At the end of the day I encourage you to expose your child to all of these things at relevant times.
I guess at the end I believe that development is all about balance. And for that reason
All sessions have been designed to challenge balance and proprioception.
- FUNdamentals
- Blending the motion of the feet and hands for skating efficiency and deception
- Scoring techniques and strategies that are effective in todays game
- increased athleticism and fundamental skills
- Energy System Training- Its a sprint sport so we train to be fast.
Smooth efficient and effortless power is the goal.

"Pat has supported me throughout my career at the University of Vermont
and his coaching helped
me make the Toronto Furies of the CWHL.
I can't thank him enough for the little tweaks and changes
that go unnoticedby coaches during day to day practices.
It is small changes in techniques and strategies that you make in yourself that lead
to the greatest improvements.
I am a better player and person for the time I have spent with Pat."
