In this private lesson, Renae videos her student as he strides down the ice.
She mentions that she wants to see the jersey number on his back as he skates away. She also focuses on his arms when he lets go of his stick. Does it stretch to match his leg?
Lastly, his head should be up so she can see the back of his helmet, and his shoulders should not have movement. He needs to aim for them to stay square.
Renae helps the athletes remember all these details by standing in a wide base then jumping to slap his skates together and landing solid. This drill engages the core, and works on balance and quickness.
Next she helps his shoulders stay still with his ribs forward. The student holds the stick overhead while lunging down the ice. This is difficult drill that requires strong core and focus.
