Four Levels.
One Standard.
///////////////////////
A progressive skating curriculum built from foundational control to game-speed performance.
START WHERE YOU BELONG
The Right Level.
From Day One
APX Edge is not a one-size-fits-all program. Every athlete is assessed and placed at the level that matches their skating ability, from foundational mechanics through game-speed execution. Each level has a clear purpose and path forward.
APX EDGE Development LEVELS
-
Build establishes the foundation of efficient skating: body and edge awareness, balance, forward stride mechanics, and controlled starts and stops.
Control the body and blades before adding power, speed, and complexity.
CURRICULUM
Body and edge awareness
Balance and body control
Forward stride mechanics
Starts and stops
OUTCOME: A balanced, controlled skater ready to build power.
-
Turn Control Into Power.
Develop builds power from proper mechanics. Athletes strengthen edge control, stride efficiency, acceleration, turning mechanics, body position, and weight transfer.Strong fundamentals produce more power with less wasted energy.
CURRICULUM
Inside and outside edge control
Power stride development
Forward and backward acceleration
Controlled turns
Body positioning and weight transfer
OUTCOME: More power, sharper turns, and efficient acceleration.
-
Turn Power Into Speed
Perform converts power and edge control into explosive, reactive skating. Athletes develop first-step quickness, overspeed mechanics, high-speed edge control, and efficient transitions.The focus moves from executing skating skills correctly to executing them faster, sharper, and with greater precision.
CURRICULUM
Explosive starts and first-step quickness
Overspeed mechanics
High-speed edge control
Transitions and direction changes
Power generation at speed
OUTCOME: A faster, more dynamic skater capable of creating and closing space.
-
Game Speed. Game Pressure. Total Control.
Elite brings the complete skating system into game-like situations. Athletes execute advanced skating skills at speed, under pressure, and in limited space.Acceleration, edge control, crossovers, changes of pace, and tight-space movement are refined through demanding repetitions and video feedback.
CURRICULUM
Edge control under load
Crossover acceleration
Change of pace
Tight-space skating
Game-speed execution
Video analysis and performance refinement
OUTCOME: Technical skating that holds up when time, space, and pressure disappear.
