We appreciate your testimonials! A few kind words from you is worth more to us than anything we could write about ourselves!
Thank you… Coach Joyce
*******************
Sean has gone to Joyce’s classes/clinics off and on for over a year. After taking a break and then attending her clinics again, we have noticed a marked difference in Sean’s skating and intensity for the game. Several of his teammates’ parents have made comments to us about Sean’s improvements and renewed energy. Sean is a sharper hockey player after spending time in the Strong Dynamics sessions. Thanks, Joyce!
Sean has improved so much with just the 3 sessions he has gone to in the last few weeks. Thanks! We are looking forward to the spring and summer sessions.

I know of 2 other kids that may interested. After I told them about your camp that Joey did last year and after seeing his improvement their parents were interested in sending their kids.

Jack is looking forward to the camp! You and your staff have inspired him to want to be a better hockey player. He loves working with you guys and asks to go every Thursday! Hope to get him with you guys over the summer if you run a summer program.
Thanks again,
–Ruthanne, mother

Ben loved working with Kasie!!! It is so funny to watch how he learns things and then applies them immediately on the ice. One of the things that he really picked up on from her was cutting down the angles that the shooter has by coming out of the crease. I noticed that at one point during the lesson she had him leave the crease and cut down the angle. When he skated out he had moved away from the post, basically leaving the entire side open for a clear shot. Rather than just telling him what to do she took the time to show him. She had your son stand in Ben’s place so that he could see the net wide open and why it is important to know where you are in relation to the post/net. He is also determined to learn how to kick his legs out faster when he is down in the butterfly position.When we got home on Saturday he was so excited about it that he told his grandparents and his little sister about it. I think that in the hour she spent with him it has to be some of the best instruction that he has received from anyone (possibly with the exception of you!).

Basically, wherever you are that’s where I’ll be. I got a really nice complement on my skating yesterday by a player I hadn’t skated w/ for a year. She was noticing how much I’d improved and it is 100% due to your correction and instruction so I’m sticking w/ what works.

I’ll be taking classes in the future. I felt an immediate improvement in my play, my team captain mentioned it last night. Plus it’s just fun to skate!

I’m an adult beginner. Just wanted to drop you a note to say how much I enjoyed – and learned – from a set of four classes with Joyce Strong in Tyngsboro. I’ve skated and played hockey for three years now, and Joyce really showed me how I can get to the next level in my skating with agility and edge work. Great drills, some very unique and challenging ones. I was getting settled into a routine of grinding it out in pickup and league hockey, and the drills made me realize how much better I can become! She’s patient, but also pushes her students hard to try to do it right so we can learn more quickly. Speaking for myself, that’s what I am looking for. Hope to take more classes with her soon, and I’ve had great experiences with the Hockey Academy adult clinics in Woburn as well.

First I must thank you for last night, (Friday) Dean had a blast. He came home and talked his father’s ear off for an hour about what you did and what he learned that he didn’t think he could even do.
–Squirt 3 Skater’s Parent… Update… Dean is now a Squirt 1 player!

Nick’s two main points in favor of returning were the two you were concerned about! He loved that you stopped him to correct mistakes & he appreciated your comment that the parents were spending hard earned money to make these lessons possible. He liked that you took the time to address his individual needs. He is thrilled to get the help.
Jack said it was refreshing to be in a small group setting where he could actually talk to you if he needed to ask a question. He said you are a great instructor and he’s looking forward to continuing.

By the way Alex made the Mite 1’s. I credit you with a lot of the improvement, when the season started I thought he was in the bottom 1/3 of the skaters on the Mite 3 team. He has more to do for sure, but has made great progress.
–Jay, parent of former Mite 3 player who is now a Mite 1 player!

I’d like to commend you on the job you’ve done with Calvin. Even with the few lessons that he has had, I’ve noticed a big improvement in his play, even if he hasn’t noticed it himself.
–Steve, father

Ben enjoys the sessions with you and always tells his friends about your daughter and son in law.
