Combining off-ice and on-ice training in one location, Training House Vernon is hoping to make Vernon a training destination for professional hockey players.

Initially opened in 2011 in downtown Vernon, the business moved into into Kal Tire Place north last fall. Now, owners are hoping to corner the hockey training market.

91裸聊视频淭he issue has always been that it91裸聊视频檚 hard to find a facility that has everything under one roof, so every summer my clients would be struggling to find locations for the on-ice development,91裸聊视频� said co-owner and athletic director Rhonda Catt. 91裸聊视频淣ow, with our facility, we have the ability to tie it all together under one roof in a way that it is condensed and efficient.91裸聊视频�

The training room overlooks the ice, making it a one stop shop. Training House is set to partner with Predator Ridge, making it a destination for high profile players and their families, who can vacation at the resort.

91裸聊视频淲e91裸聊视频檝e met with Predator Ridge and because of their Hockey Canada affiliation, it91裸聊视频檚 a perfect fit for what we91裸聊视频檙e trying to do,91裸聊视频� said co-owner and operations director Carla Rayner. 91裸聊视频淪o over the next five years, we really want to promote Vernon as the place to train for pro hockey players. We want them to come here with their families, have their families vacation up at Predator Ridge and then shuttling them down here and training in-house so they91裸聊视频檙e getting the whole package in one location so it91裸聊视频檚 a pretty big draw.91裸聊视频�

Launching the program this summer, Training House is also attracting high profile trainers like Stacy Roest, director of player development for the Tampa Bay Lightning.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檒l be amazing to for Roest to coordinate the on-ice portion and he91裸聊视频檚 also pulling in more people who will help push the program forward as well. I think once we can get the first year under our belt and people start to realize what we have here, I think it91裸聊视频檒l make a huge mark for Vernon,91裸聊视频� said Catt.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 pretty incredible. Once we get the word out with what is happening here, I think the excitement will really start to build,91裸聊视频� added Rayner.

Though staff is excited about the opportunity to focus on creating the perfect location for hockey training, owners noted that they do train people not associated with the sport 91裸聊视频� whether that be teams for other sports or individuals looking for a hands-on, individually-focused training facility. Rayner said that it does not operate like a normal gym. Utilizing an education-based business model, Training House limits the general memberships base to a maximum of 200 people.

91裸聊视频淥ur goal is to deliver a trainer who is appropriate for them and can address their goals. Before we start, we ask our clients what they are trying to achieve and then set some goals and help them achieve success. That91裸聊视频檚 the goal,91裸聊视频� she said. 91裸聊视频淲e limit it to 200 because any more and we won91裸聊视频檛 be able to give them the proper attention.91裸聊视频�

Currently Training House has 150 general members. Anyone interested can come in for a trial before signing up for a year-long membership.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 $169 a month with one year commitment so we91裸聊视频檙e happy to give people trials to see if it fits their needs before they commit to a year. We know everyone91裸聊视频檚 name, what their goals are and what their limitations are because we keep the amount of memberships small.91裸聊视频�

Catt also noted that they pride themselves on developing a trust with medical professionals to better accommodate client91裸聊视频檚 needs.

91裸聊视频淲e want to create an amazing, high quality service that helps to improve a person91裸聊视频檚 lifestyle,91裸聊视频� said Rayner.
