The Perfect-A-Poise is a revolutionary resistance training tool that promotes better posture, coordination, and consistency of positions in skating. Designed by former world team member and ice dance and moves in the field specialist Mathew Gates, this training aid teaches skaters how to find their opposing lines of movement. Mathew found that these opposite lines of movement, drawn from shoulder to skate, are key to establishing proper skating positions and posture. Skaters will develop a foundational posture to incorporate into skating movements and positions, from jumps and spins to moves in the field and ice dance. the end result is a more integrated, consistent and fluid skating technique.
Perfect-A-Poise works for all levels of skaters; it's excellent for skaters just learning how to stroke properly, yet essential to skaters wanting better control into their triple jumps or during advanced footwork.
The shoulder strap, which is velvet lined for comfort, is strapped to a skaters shoulder. This is connected to a double resistance cord, which concludes at a smaller strap which is easily attached to the front of the boot of the opposite skate. A skater can use this training tool to perform stroking, crossovers, moves, foorwork, jump entries, landing positions, and more!
