I second (third) that. I play rec hockey, and while I'm a decent player, skating is definitely the weakest part of my game. I get where I'm going, but I feel like I need to work way harder than a lot of other guys to get there. I really need to work on acceleration and strength in turns/changes of direction, etc.

I'm always hoping I'll see some ad for a quick 2 or 3 day power skating course for adults whenever I'm back in Calgary, but I haven't yet.
