Training Programs
On Ice Skills Sessions
Our on ice skills include a variety of drills that focus on game specific scenarios that aim at improving hockey IQ and awareness. Through analysis of NHL and Pro Hockey players, we utilize video of these Pros to demonstrate specific skills we are focusing on, while also taking video of players during sessions to enhance visual perception. Furthermore, we incorporate interference such as a whistle, releasing players mid-drill, an extra player, etc. in our drills that challenge players to think in an unconscious, instinctual state rather than relying on conscious, calculated strategies. This tactic of teaching facilitates our focus on deep processing so players can get the most out of all our sessions.
Off Ice Shooting Lessons
Our sessions provide video analysis of players’ shots as well as a side by side visual representation of their shots compared with a Pro’s shot. Through this technique of enhancing visual perception for the player, details of a slapshot, wristshot, snapshot, and backhand become more apparent and facilitate our focus of deep processing to enhance learning for the player. Furthermore, our sessions include stick-handling drills to improve players’ placement and touches with the puck and increase players’ fundamental skills. These drills also improve the set-up, quick release, and overall speed of the shot. Additionally, we provide video for players to take home after our sessions so they can refer back to this material whenever needed.
