TESTIMONIALS

Skating is the most important function in hockey. Catherine has worked with Kyle on his edges, maximizing his stride and using proper technique. Her drills are very effective in getting the players to work on their edges and she also ensures the kids have fun with it. Kyle looks forward to power skating with Catherine and I can honestly say that his skating has improved tremendously and the results speak for itself on the ice.

Thanks Catherine for all your hard work and dedication.

Your dedication and passion for the proper techniques of skating are incredible; your attention to the detail of how-to-skate and edge work is amazing. You have great patience with the young players who for some have never done it and don't even know what edges are. At this age they just want to skate. Over the season and practices the players developed into great skaters that could balance, cut, weave at fast speeds, not only on 2 feet, but with great balance on 1 foot. On our team you could see the development that came from being taught the proper stride and how to get power into your stride and come out faster, due to being able to skate properly the players were able to last longer on the ice, because if you are skating properly you use less energy.
Throughout our season we had many compliments on how the kids were skating and the difference from the beginning of the season. These compliments are a result of your instruction and teachings on the ice. 

Thank you Cath!!!

Over the last 7-8 months of Catherine working with Jack he has become a more confident and assertive player on the ice.  His understanding of the game and being engaged during the game I attribute to these techniques taught to him at these practices run by Catherine Toste.  Catherine has had to work with a group of rambunctious 7 year olds.  She has shown patience, caring and true professionalism.  She has maintained efficient and orderly practices that Jack has learned from.  I view her as huge asset to our team and hockey family.  You can tell her passion is skating and it has become contagious to our team and to my son Jack.

Thank you!

Catherine has been working with Noah and his team for most of this past season. She has proven that she will give you a better understanding of the "mechanics of skating" and that why a good skate stride is key to any hockey player. Catherine not only brings the "mechanics of skating", but also the energy and passion to communicate it on to others. I noticed a definite improvement on Noah's stride, acceleration and back pedaling, especially at a hockey game when the pressure is "on".
Noah really enjoyed "powerskating" with Catherine this past season and he is looking forward to doing it again next season. The parents have requested for Catherine to come back again next season!!!

Catherine....I thank you for making Noah the stronger skater that he is today! Great job, I look forward to see you soon!!!
