The Keys to Your Skating Type (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9782970200826)

Why do some players glide effortlessly while others struggle, even after years of training?

The difference is not effort or talent.

It is your skating type.

The Keys to YOUR Skating Type introduces a powerful, easy-to-understand system built on Three Motor Keys for Eight Skating Types, helping players, parents, and coaches finally understand why every skater moves differently and how to train smarter as a result.

Developed from more than 15 years of experience working with elite and developing players, this book breaks away from one-size-fits-all skating instruction. Instead, it reveals how each body is naturally designed to move on the ice-and how recognizing that design can dramatically improve speed, balance, efficiency, and confidence.

Inside this essential guide, you will learn:

• The Three Motor Keys that influence skating power, control, and efficiency
• The Eight Skating Types and how each one naturally moves on the ice
• Why forcing the wrong technique can limit performance and increase frustration
• How to identify your skating type and use it to your advantage
• How coaches can adapt drills and teaching methods for better results
• Real-world NHL examples that illustrate each skating type
• Highly illustrative photos that make complex movement patterns clear and practical

Whether you are a player striving to skate faster and with less effort, a parent supporting your child's development, or a coach looking to individualize instruction, this book provides a clear, practical model you can apply immediately.

Stop copying techniques that were never built for your body.

Stop training against your natural movement patterns.

Start skating with purpose, efficiency, and confidence.
