JOIN OKA POWERSKATING FOR
PRE-SEASON PERFORMANCE CAMP
October 2-4, 2026
Williston, ND
Built on Skating
Prepared for Performance
A specialty powerskating camp focused on skating development for hockey athletes at all levels of the game.
While hockey requires many skills, skating is the foundation that supports all of them. Through focused powerskating training, athletes learn to move more efficiently, generate greater speed, develop explosive power, and maintain control on the ice. Strong skating technique allows athletes to maximize their athletic abilities and perform more effectively in game situations.
Skating development is not something athletes outgrow.
From youth hockey through the highest levels of the game, skating skills require continual refinement. As athletes grow stronger and the game becomes faster, inefficient movement patterns become more noticeable and can limit performance. Regular attention to skating technique helps athletes continue developing speed, power, efficiency, and confidence throughout their hockey careers.
While skating development remains the primary focus of the camp, athletes will also participate in off-ice sessions designed to support overall athletic performance. Topics may include mobility, recovery, nutrition, mindset, and team-building activities that help athletes develop habits that contribute to success both on and off the ice.
WHO IS IT FOR
This camp is open to hockey athletes at all levels of the game, from any hockey organization.*
Athletes will initially be grouped based on their team level and age. However, skating ability is our primary consideration, and athletes may be moved to different groups throughout the camp if it will provide a better training environment and support their development.
*Athletes must already have basic skating skills and be able to move independently on the ice. If your child is new to skating, we recommend beginning with a Learn to Skate or introductory hockey skating program before attending this camp.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Athletes can expect a combination of on-ice skating development and off-ice athlete education throughout the camp.
On-ice sessions will focus on skating development and may include topics such as edges, transitions, stride mechanics, acceleration, agility, balance, and overall movement efficiency. Athletes will participate in a variety of drills and training activities throughout the camp, with a little extra fun mixed in on the final day through games and team-based challenges.
Off-ice sessions are designed to support overall athlete development and may include topics such as nutrition for athletes, recovery strategies, mobility, mindset, and healthy performance habits. These sessions will be paired with team-building activities that encourage collaboration, communication, and confidence.
WHAT ATHLETES WILL LEAVE WITH
A stronger understanding of skating technique
Greater confidence and body awareness on the ice
New drills and exercises to support continued development
Improved understanding of recovery and athletic habits
Tools to help support long-term growth throughout the season

MEET MALLORY
Mallory (Olson) Jevning has been coaching athletes throughout North Dakota and Minnesota for more than 15 years and specializes in skating skills development for hockey athletes. Her coaching focuses on helping athletes develop efficient movement patterns, stronger skating mechanics, and greater confidence on the ice.
Drawing from a high-level figure skating background as a Double U.S. Figure Skating Gold Medalist and former national level synchronized skating coach, Mallory brings extensive technical knowledge of skating mechanics and movement development to her work with hockey athletes.
The athletes vastly improve it seems almost immediately when working with her…
“Mallory has a knack for understanding and connecting with the kids/athletes. She is always encouraging them to participate during their lessons, explaining, and demonstrating technique in a way that is understood by the kids/athletes. The athletes/kids vastly improve it seems almost immediately when working with her.”
Eric, Athlete’s Dad
His stride, agilty, and edge work is amazing and on the same level as many players much older than him.
“My son has made great improvements in his skating abilities since he started with OKA. Even though he is only a Pee Wee, his stride, agility, and edge work is amazing and on the same level as many players much older than him. These improvements have led him to build confidence which has translated into him becoming a much greater hockey player.
Athlete’s Dad

“My daughter recognizes what an amazing coach you are, not just in skating but in building confidence, building an athlete and being a role model. I hope you know how impactful you are!”
