First things first! Make sure your skates are sharp! Follow these quick tips and you’ll be skating like Bobby Orr in no time!
1. Always keep your eyes looking forward and shoulders back.
2. As you improve, angle your upper body slightly forward from the hips (your stance remains almost vertical)
3. Always keep your hips low to the ice.
4. Remember to have a strong knee and ankle bend.
5. Practice! Practice! Practice!
