The Power Skating Program is designed to help hockey players of all levels improve their skating technique. As the game of hockey evolves into a faster paced game, it is essential for players from all levels from minor to professional hockey to strive to improve their skating. Power Skating camps are an integral part of improving game speed.

"I wouldn't be here today without the help I got from OHS Head Power Skating Instructor Rob McLaughlin, who helped me improve my stride using plyometrics. I noticed improvements on the ice right after just a week with Rob. It was like I'd gained an extra step or two I didn't have before."
- Duncan Keith, Chicago Blackhawks

We highly recommend that this camp is taken in conjunction with another camp as the best 2-week option for players who are serious about improving their game.
