Jeremy Weiss, B.S. of Exercise Sciences, currently owns and operates Weiss Tech Hockey Schools, offering development camps, private lessons, team consulting, and coaching instruction. One of his core philosophies is to combine "European skill and finesse" with "North American strength and toughness." He recently brought his hockey knowledge online with his Hockey Drills and Skills blog which can be found at http://weisstechhockey.com/blog

Jeremy grew up in Toronto, Canada where he was introduced to hockey at a young age. He was fortunate to be schooled by excellent hockey people for most of his young career. Jeremy learned to skate from Czechoslovakian Martin Maglay. He played most of his youth hockey for the Wexford Raiders 'AAA' (part of the then-called Metro Toronto Hockey League), and was coached by his father Stan Weiss.

During the "Wexford Years" Jeremy's team enjoyed enormous success winning 26 of 32 major tournaments over the course of six years. These victories included multiple international tournaments, as well as an All-Ontario Championship.

Jeremy went on to play some higher-level hockey, including two years of Jr. "A" hockey in the Ontario Provincial Junior Hockey League, and some college hockey. However, it was his hockey up-bringing in those early years that gave him his unique perspective on coaching young hockey players.

Over the years, Jeremy was privileged to be coached by many world-class instructors, and included Stan Butler (12-year veteran in the OHL), Dan Cameron (personal tutor of Eric Lindros), Brett Calligan (former NHL'er for the Oilers), Martin Maglay (former NHL'er and member of the Czech national team). These coaches helped shape his hockey philosophy and current coaching style.
