On Ice Development 
 
For the past 31 years Karen has owned and operated her own Technical Skating business, overseeing program development working with players from the minor, junior, collegiate, and professional hockey ranks. Her approach to technical power skating is unlike any other skating program, in that she applies her extensive educational background and expertise in the field of Biomechanics to develop strong skating technique in her students. Throughout her sessions, players will gain understanding as to how to move their body efficiently and effortlessly through implementing key concepts which maximizes overall body movement, foot speed and power. Specific emphasis is placed on breaking down, rebuilding, and fine tuning player's skating techniques, utilizing core principles of biomechanics. With this scientific approach to skating, these hockey specific sessions ensure players develop superior skills on a much higher level and at a faster pace. Karens unique style, quality of instruction and passion for improving players skating brings out the best in all her students in a fun and energetic learning environment.

Progression 
 
This is exclusively a skating camp, with no pucks or goalies. The camp will begin with the foundation of mechanics, posture, and balance. We then progress into essential tools and movements that all players must master- the key focuses will be: 
 
Forward Stride 
Backward Stride 
Acceleration 
Lateral movement 
Edge control 
Tight turns 
Crossovers 
Pivots and mobility
