Romeoville (Chicago Area)

The Fundamental Techniques class is the primary class that we’ve been running for over 50 years. Players will focus on proper technique and developing a strong foundation including knee bend, a full-length stride, and a full return. We start with a focus on skating slowly and correctly, then slowly, correctly, and powerfully. This can take many years to learn and master. All hockey players, regardless of skill level, need a solid foundation on skating technique, balance, and explosiveness, all of which are covered in the fundamental class.

Recommended for all ages 7+ who want to improve their fundamental skating skills, those new to Laura Stamm Power Skating, are skaters up to age 13 playing house-level hockey, or are adult novice league skaters.

The Advanced Techniques class is designed for players who have a good foundation of proper skating technique, such as travel or high school players with a strong grasp of fundamentals to build on. Players will focus on developing the more difficult techniques that lead to agility, explosiveness, and top-end speed. This is appropriate for hockey players looking to take their stride, balance, and explosiveness to the next level.

Recommended for skaters who want to develop more advanced skating skills, have previous experience with the Laura Stamm Power Skating system, or are playing at least at a travel hockey or intermediate adult league level in line with the recommendations below.
