    Easier said than done! I will continue to work on these drills. I know I can do it. Thanks Nick!

    Thanks for sharing this information-I’ve also learned similar concepts to ‘falling’ forward in a running seminar. Never thought about how that equates to the lean in skating.

    Awesome! I am always looking for new stroking exercises to do with my students. Very clear and I like that you have named them. Thanks!

    Thank you – fantastic drills and explanations on weight balance to create power! Will be testing out the standing c-cuts on my skaters

    Thank you. I’ll add these excellent drills to my training and my teaching. You said something really powerful: we create movement by being (temporarily) in an unbalanced state. This is a pretty interesting comment useful in teaching: you need to stay out of your comfort zone to learn something new, to experiment something new.

  8. […] that some of the movements here are similar to those of Nick Perna’s C-cuts and one foot banana […]

    Thank you for your videos, they are my favourite. You have clear and factual style of teaching, and you’ve been a tremendous help for me to understand how a loop take-off works.
