Where Edge began

Tracey Dorr

Founder

Tracey built Edge in 2009 on a simple conviction: great hockey starts with great skating, and skating deserves a specialist. A lifelong figure skater turned coach, she brings competition-level technical depth and a builder's eye for what actually moves a player forward.

The Edge difference

Every NHL team's power-skating coach has a figure-skating background.
So do ours. That's not a coincidence — it's the standard at the top of the game. Edge brings that same coaching pedigree to Toronto hockey players aged 5–14, fifteen-plus years before the pros come calling.

Edge coaches working with players on the ice — figure-skating background, hockey delivery

Figure-skating-trained coaches

Edge's senior coaches come from — or were trained in — figure skating, where edge control, balance and stride mechanics are the entire craft. They teach skating the way it's meant to be taught.

Train for the game, see it in your game

Every drill is delivered in a hockey-specific environment, using pucks and sticks. The skating foundation is elite, but the focus is on skills that translate directly to better performance in the game.

One discipline, done properly

Skating isn't just part of what we do — it's all we do. That singular focus is why our players consistently stand out for their speed, efficiency and edge work.
