Skating Treadmill

Maximizing Athletic Development Every Day at The Hockey Hut

At The Hockey Hut, our skating treadmill isn’t about conditioning—it’s about building better skaters. Every session is designed to develop proper stride mechanics, edge control, posture, and skating efficiency. This is where athletes learn how to move with purpose, balance, and control.


Our Philosophy

We use the treadmill as a developmental tool to isolate and correct skating form in a way that’s simply not possible on the ice. From stride length and foot recovery to edge engagement and body position, every movement is coached and refined. With harness support and real-time feedback, athletes develop the habits that translate directly to stronger, more confident on-ice performance.

Getting Started

All athletes begin with a required 30-minute Intro to Treadmill session. During this one-on-one, we properly fit the harness, teach falling safety using the “Superman” position, and guide the athlete through one-foot starts, gliding, edgework, and basic striding with full coach support. This step ensures every skater is safe, comfortable, and ready to get the most out of the program.

No athlete is allowed to join classes or programs without completing the Intro first.

Six-Week Progressive Programs

After completing the intro, athletes begin with Program 1: Treadmill Fundamentals—the foundation of our six-level progression. Each level runs for six weeks, with one 50-minute session per week in a small group of no more than four skaters. These sessions emphasize edge comfort, stride control, foot return, and tempo. Each program builds on the last, allowing athletes to progress at their own pace.

The cost for the six-week program is $285.

Scheduling & Availability

Treadmill sessions are typically scheduled Monday through Thursday between 5:00–7:00 PM, with age-appropriate groupings. Session times shift throughout the year, so we recommend contacting The Hockey Hut directly for the most up-to-date schedule.


Important Notes

Completion of the Intro to Treadmill is required before participating in any group class or progressive program. Safety and proper harness use are mandatory. Progression is based on readiness, not speed—some players may repeat a level to ensure consistent form and comfort. Drop-ins are not allowed for the six-week programs; once registered, weekly attendance is expected.
