Off Ice Fitness
Fitness classes are specifically designed to meet the needs of skaters of all levels and backgrounds. The focus is on skating specific strengths. We emphasize enhancing balance, core strength, and overall athletic ability through the use of Swiss balls, balance apparatus, sport cords and innovative low impact strength training. Unlike typical resistive training with weights, this class will focus more on coordination, flexibility and agility. The Benefits derived from the class can have a direct and measurable effect with on-ice performance. This class works synergistically with skater’s on-ice program and reinforces specific motor skills. Group classes will be offered Monday through Friday. Individual sessions are available by appointment. Instructors with substantial figure skating and exercise science backgrounds will generally teach the classes.
Trampoline
Trampoline training focuses on basic jumping technique, stressing tight body positioning with respect to multi-revolution jumps. Each skater will learn to coordinate body movements and gain control of their jump rotation. The trampoline will expand the athletes comfort zone by increasing the body awareness, hence reducing the fear factor and contributing to improve confidence. Safety will be stressed and there will be no allowance for inverted maneuvers. Instructors with substantial figure skating and exercise science backgrounds will generally teach classes.
