Want to be a better skater?

What makes the sport of ice hockey more challenging to beginners than any other sport?
.
Think about it. Most kids can do the functions needed to do most American sports: throw and catch a baseball, swing a bat, shoot a basketball, and throw a football, but do these actions in an arena  with a  floor of ice wearing a pair of skates and most kids would find that near impossible. Well that's ice hockey. 

A player can work on stick-handling skills anytime and almost anywhere, but the same does not go for refining your skating skills.

It doesn't matter what stage of skating you are currently in: beginner, intermediate or 
advanced. There is always something you could be doing better than the way you are presently skating right now. Faster feet, more power, better conservation of energy, quicker and tighter turns, more stable and faster transitions, and finding the right timing and coordination of skating with a puck are skills every player needs to work on and constantly refine — even the pro's.

Becoming a better skater starts on the ice at the rink, and the best way to maximize your efforts is to learn the correct way to skate. The worst thing a player can do is to practice things the wrong way. Quite frankly this is what happens to most players in a hockey game. Your body learns from repetitive actions called muscle memory; therefore, practicing things that are wrong trains your body to do things wrong over and over again. Don't let this happen to your skating. Do it right the first few times, and, then, let your body do it right from muscle memory. Build positive energy by reinforcing correct form and correct movement. 

Before you know it, you will notice your skills improving and your confidence increasing.
Soon, you too can be out-skating your opponents.
