I started working for Coach Chic in the Summer of '97 as his Strength Coach at his local Hockey Camps. I was in charge of the kids conditioning and also he trusted me with a postion on the ice to help teach his philosophies as a Master Coach/ Trainer. As time went by I realized that his exercise science background and his hockey experience as a player and coach was different than any other coach I've worked with. He broke down the way players skated, shot the puck, and made the save by filming and carefully reviewing their mechanics. Coach Chic and I go way back and I still to this day remember lessons he taught me and I implement them when coaching and training my players. If you want to learn from one of the best, please talk to Dennis.

We met Coach Chic when our son, Tim, was 7. It was his first ā€œrealā€ hockey camp, and he soaked it all in. The camp was visiting from Massachusetts to PA, and we were fortunate that Tim thrived under Coach Chic’s Russian-styled ā€œfun-danentalā€ training styles. Tim developed excellent skating and puck-handling skills over the next three summers, and enjoyed every camp experience. Today, he is a pro player, has retained the fundamentals that Coach Chic instilled in him as a young lad. We have maintained a great friendship for more than 25 years.

Coach Chic is a tremendous resource for all coaches. He tells it like it is and leads you in the right direction to becoming a better coach. He gives great suggestions and engages you in the problem solving process. I can't thank him enough!

What Coach Chic brought back from his time in Moscow was 20 years ahead of what we were being taught in the USA. Whether mastering the forward stride, or or developing advanced stickhandling techniques, Coach Chic has the knowledge and the talent to teach his students calmly and supportively.

His ability to prepare his players to expect the unexpected and more often than not be successful in their execution is second to no one. Equipping his students with the skills and understanding of the game to move them to the next level is what Coach Chic does best.Ā  If you're looking to advance your game, I fully endorse Coach Chic!

See how other families, coaches,
and players have grown with Coach Chic.
