I enjoy working with all skaters from beginners to elite but especially of taking the time to teach the athletic fundamentals of the Sport.

My goal is to help each skater to reach their maximum capacity through fun workout and educate them to train in a safe environment. My main aim is to teach them so they can do it on their own later on in life.
