Skills Programs
The Boston Imperials StrideRight Skating Skills program is an ongoing skills program based on a combination of North American and European skating methodologies. It is designed to move players through a strong foundation of skills which become the foundation of their playing style.
We have a number of different programs throughout the year.

This is a brand new 9 week program which will start on Saturday June TBD and end on July 29th.
