"Total Training" is becoming necessary as it includes training skills, mental readiness and physical preparedness. While coaches can give expert on-ice training and skaters, parents and acoaches can provide mental drive and attitude, Champion Sports Advantage can help develop the discipline in off-ice training. Off-Ice Seminars in strength and conditioning are presented "hands on" in an easily understood and implemented format.
