Hockey Skating, Skills, & Checking Lessons

HARDCORE NEWS

If you would like your player to learn the correct techniques of hockey skating and hockey skills... Then this is the
way to do it. During the on and off season, two team practices per week are not enough indidvidual attention to
correct bad habits or to learn the proper hockey techniques to have your player advance to the next level. Players
that put in the extra time on the ice, and understand what types of skills they need to accomplish before moving to
the next level will achieve their personal hockey goals in the future. Growing up in Alaska we were skating on the pond,
synthetic ice, and outdoors and I still received two 5 AM lessons a week until I was 16 years old. It may seem extreme
or like a lot but this is truly what is needed to make it far in this competitive game. As with anything else, consistency
is key.
