Wayne Gretzky has said, "If you can’t skate, you
can’t play our sport. Skating is an art."
Skating, or SPEED, IS THE NAME OF THE GAME. Without good technique,
it is very difficult for any hockey player to reach his or her
optimum potential for speed.
Laura Stamm Power Skating is the finest
technique training program in the world. The entire focus of the
program is to teach SPEED, ACCELERATION AND MOBILITY by teaching
HOW TO CORRECTLY EXECUTE every possible hockey maneuver. We don’t
just tell you to GO. We teach you HOW TO GO!! Speed on straightaways,
accelerating the corners, explosive starts, backward maneuverability,
quickness and rapid transition - all are taught in a step by step,
progressive sequence that is made simple to learn and easy to
remember.
Laura Stamm is the Pioneer

Here’s what parents say:
"What keeps Laura Stamm Power Skating
at the forefront is that Laura is still the innovator.
Her programs are always on the cutting edge, leaving the others
to follow in her blade marks. Her most recent innovation is to
incorporate practice techniques to prevent spinal cord injuries."
Don’t think you can learn everything in one shot. Like
going to school, it takes years to excel in a sport. So it does
for skating as well. Our program is a process! First, we teach
CORRECTLY. The next step is correctly, powerfully. The next step
is correctly, powerfully, quickly. The next step is correctly,
powerfully, quickly, with the puck. The final step is correctly,
powerfully, quickly, with the puck and in game situations with
lots of pressure. This is TOUGH. It takes years of work and years
of practice to master all these skills at top speed under pressure.
So give the PROS a lot of credit. They’re truly great.
