Tri Cities Predators Elite High Performance Conditioning

!

One opportunity…Give Everything…BE READY Dear Tri Cities Predators,

Thank you for the opportunity for TWIST Performance + Wellness Tri-Cities to present our proposal of how we can help the Predators players get the upper hand in their on-ice performance.

Players have many choices for on- and off-season training but none offer the intensive coaching, individualized programming, innovative methods and proven success of TWIST. Developed by Peter Twist and his team of Elite Hockey Conditioning Specialists, the TWIST Hockey Training Paradigm and High Performance Hockey Camps are recognized as the most innovative and forward thinking in hockey. The TWIST System will provide the Predators players with enhanced on-ice movement skills on and off the puck, increased speed, explosive stride power, first step quickness, hockey strength and balance, rotary core power and a highly developed anaerobic energy system that directly transfers to individual skating skills, puck skills and game tactics.

Players begin every season with high expectations of what their conditioning program is going to deliver and our goal is to exceed those expectations. Our on- and off- season training sessions will inspire and provide your players with the tools they will need to reach their hockey dreams and to help guide the Predators organization to a championship season.

TWIST Hockey Training Systems have helped players flourish in the NHL, make the jump to Pro Hockey, get drafted, earn scholarships, make Junior & top Rep teams, and play to their peak potential such as Chris Stewart (Colorado Avalanche), Mike Santorelli (Florida Panthers) and Mark Visentin (Team Canada World JR). In addition TWIST has had the pleasure of being the strength and conditioning coach for the Chinese Olympic Hockey Teams as well as for Speed Skating, Figure Skating and Curling. Most recently Peter Twist has been appointed Director of Olympic Talent Development for the China National Hockey Program, working with the China Olympic Committee and the China Ice Hockey Association. We are excited to bring to the Tri Cities Predators the same methodology and science that is used for elite Olympic athletes and watch your teams reach their full potential. Sincerely,
