Cleve has been a Skate Canada Power Skating Coach for the Fuller Lake Skating Club for over 13 years.  He has taught kids of all ages and levels.  His strength is in his ability to take kids that have difficulty skating and teach them to be effective skaters.  He believes kids need to have fun when they are learning new skills.  It is Cleves' approach to fun learning that keeps kids coming back.  Many of his students have gone on to play competitive hockey.  Cleve evaluates the kids at every level and gives them a report card at the end of the season so they know what they need to work on. He uses his over 45 years of hockey playing experience, both at the recreational and competitive level, to ensure his students know how to apply the skills taught in real game play action.  Cleve believes that being an effective skater not only makes the game more enjoyable, but reduces the chances of injury on the ice.

 

I've been teaching and instructing power skating for 15 years for Fuller lake skating club my home club and 5 years in Duncan skating club. I've coached hockey at the competitive level, and my goal is to make it fun and challenging while ensuring all skills are learned .
