Coaching Philosophy
My coaching philosophy is to aid in the development of each individual’s skills both on and off the ice. To do this, I focus on fundamental skills and assisting each skater to surpass their own expectations of themselves by working with them until they have the confidence, perseverance and drive to attain more.
