| Efficiency skating emphasizes proper hockey skating technique to maximize power and speed. The player utilizes proper weight placement on the appropriate edge of the blade, controls specific shifts in their body weight during the stride and pushes their weight in the right direction. A player may have an immense amount of power but without good techniques, power is lost and skating requires more effort.

| Doug Antoine's Efficiency Skating maximizes the player's power allowing them to skate using less energy. Efficiency skating not only creates power and speed, but it gives the player more stability, increases their control over body and puck movement, and increases their overall confidence. The program goes beyond just skating. Every aspect of the game is taught with proper technique: shooting, passing, body checking and positional skills. Overall vision of the ice is emphasized in order to ensure that all skills are effectively applied to game situations. Amateurs to the NHL players can elevate their game and excel beyond their expectations using these techniques. |
