Skating Skills Sessions
South Metro Thunder is be offering skating skills sessions during our 2027 season. Sessions will focus on developing skating skills, including power and explosiveness, proper stance, edge control, transitions, stride, and agility. Each session will include a warm-up progression and specific skating focus area.
These sessions will be offered to members of Thunder teams. If there are deemed to be openings by Thunder staff, then they may be opened up to the general public.
Carey Tinkelenberg and Karri Nachtigal have over 50 years of combined experience as professional, full-time skating coaches. They have developed programs for youth, high school, college, and semi-pro athletes and teams. Carey and Karri are skating development pros for the Lakeville Hockey Association, as well as Northfield, Owatonna, and Minneapolis associations and Hawkeye Hockey Services elite training programs.
