Treadmill Skating Training - Pre-Tryout Tune-up

If the timing of ringette pre-tryout tune-ups in Mississauga aren't convenient, another option is treadmill skating.  Just received an email that the Skating Lab is booking pre-tryout training.

We first heard about treadmill skating at Skating Lab from Robin Mahy*. Robin coached the 2007-08 Southern Region AAA team, and the entire team completed a Skating Lab program. My older daughter played for Robin when she coached the 2008-09 Burlington Belle AA team and the AAA players on that team gave rave reviews about their performance improvement after going to the Skating Lab.

Both our daughters have been to the Skating Lab at Chesswood Arena, completed the 8-week programs and been back for tune-ups. 

It says 'hockey' in the email excerpt below but it's great for ringette players as well.  Read this testimonial from a Team Canada ringette player about how Skating Lab helped her make Team Canada.

Here's an excerpt from Skating Lab's email:

"As one season ends, tryouts for the next season are on the horizon……..so it is time to book your PRE TRYOUT TUNE UPS for April tryouts! 

The Skating Lab is booking PRE TRYOUT TRAINING now. If your tryouts are the second and third week of April, your player has a potential training opportunity over the next three weeks. Start now and ensure they have the preparation required to show at their best.

The Skating Lab programs focus predominantly on SKATING MECHANICS trained on a skating treadmill. Tryouts are all about showing off your skill set, SKATING IS THE FUNDAMENTAL SKILL OF THE GAME OF HOCKEY!  Training SKATING SKILLS elevates all aspects of your game... "
