Powerwest Athletics

We want you to be the best skater you can be! PowerWest Athletics (PWA) programs emphasize correct technical skating including stride development, agility, speed, balance, quickness, and readiness through the effective use of edges.

Our programs are unique in their program format, low ratio of instructors to participants, and are known for their professional skating instruction. Striding for excellence for 30+ years in coaching with novice to pro hockey players. Instructed by Mena Westhaver and her team of PowerWest Athletics coaches.
