Purpose: This exercise builds hip stability for stroking and the landing position, so that skaters can maintain a stronger position on their skating leg, while their free leg moves
Focus: core, knee bend, glute activation, hip activation, glute strength, hip strength.

Purpose: This class dives into upper and lower body exercises to help improve the quick twitch movements to help snap into their jumps and improve alignment on the take-off to help improve rotation speed over the axis.
Focus: quick twitch, technique, axis, band exercises, max rotation.

Purpose: This exercise builds core strength to help with the movement from a skaters h-position into air position developing muscle memory and the core strength needed to move from one position to the other.
Focus: core, h-position, air position.

Purpose: This box jump exercise helps to improve jump height for the axel and salchow and works on quick twich muscles to get into the skaters air position.
Focus: upper body check, hip, knee and ankle extension, glute stability, landing, spacial awareness, explosive power.

Purpose: This plyometric exercise helps to improve jump height and work on spacial awareness while in rotation.
Focus: upper body check, hip, knee and ankle extension, glute stability, landing, spacial awareness, explosive power.

Purpose: This box jump exercise helps to improve jump height for the loop and helps work on the quickness and stability of landing.
Focus: hip, knee and ankle extension, glute stability, landing, spacial awareness, explosive power, loop.

Focus: upper body check, hip, knee and ankle extension, glute stability, landing

Purpose: This video demonstrates how skaters can learn to go from a standstill to taking pushes.
Focus: balance, blade pressure, core strength.

Purpose: This is a compound exercise that challenges skaters to balance in a deep knee bend while pulsing their free leg, keeping their core still while controlling upper body movement.
Focus: hip activation, glute activation, quad activation, lat activation, stability, glute, upper body strength...

Purpose: Skaters can practice their c-step on a curve using the blue line as reference to stay on the circle.
