What to Expect

Small Group Spring Training | Mankato, Minnesota

KJPS spring skates bring focus to building intelligent movement habits, improving skating efficiency, and preparing athletes for the demands of the upcoming summer hockey through intentional instruction, structured progression, & small-group coaching.

☑️Intentional Structure

Each month follows a clear training focus—from technical foundations to game-speed application so athletes understand why they are training a certain way and how each phase builds on the last.

☑️Small Group Environment

Groups are capped at 12 skaters so each athlete’s learning remains individual and intentional. The small-group environment allows skaters to progress alongside peers while still receiving the individualized coaching needed to build skating habits that transfer seamlessly from practice to real game situations.

☑️Skill Meets Understanding

Training is built around how athletes actually learn. Rather than relying on mindless repetition, skaters are taught to understand how edge pressure, alignment, and body awareness influence speed, balance, and control. By connecting movement to intention, athletes develop stronger neural patterns that transfer more consistently from practice to real game situations.

☑️KJ Skating Intelligence™ Support

All skaters receive access to the KJ Skating Intelligence™ Classroom, an online learning space designed to support how athletes actually learn and retain movement. Short teaching videos, visual cues, and guided concepts help skaters better understand what they’re working on, revisit patterns between sessions, and reinforce efficient habits.
