Private Lessons

There is no such thing as a "Crash Course" in hockey skills development. Hockey skills must be continually expanded, and perfected, for a player to reach his full potential. This must be done both in the off-season, and during the regular season. Because of this we have developed many different additional instruction options in order to maximize our players' learning capabilities.

Private Lessons

Many individual skills are difficult to perfect during a typical, team-oriented practice. Because of this, many players lack fundamental skills that are the building blocks of higher-level hockey.

Players can use one-on-one time with Coach Weiss to focus on specific skills such as shooting, technical aspects of skating, passing, etc. After a careful analysis of the player's strengths and weaknesses, Coach Weiss will develop a custom program to help the player progress, and work toward achieving his full potential.

Small Group Lessons (2-4 Players)

Although Private Lessons are extremely effective in acquiring and perfecting individual skills, the cost of ice makes it very difficult for most people to take advantage of this excellent method of training. To help make Private Lessons more affordable, Weiss Tech Hockey also offers Small Group Lessons.

In many ways, training in a small group is even more effective than Private Lessons. Players can partner up with each other to work on passing, and there is a greater variety of drills that can be run with four players as opposed to one. Also, having four players on the ice allows for some rest-time between drills. Yet four players is still a small enough group to focus on individual skills development.

Off-ice Strength & Conditioning Development (1-2 Players)

Off-ice conditioning is one of the major weaknesses in hockey today. The majority of players, even at high levels of hockey, do little (or no) off-ice strength training. The positive side to this is that there is an opportunity to gain a definite "edge" over your opponent through a properly formatted off-ice training program, executed faithfully by the player.

Off-ice training sessions can be done either individually, or in pairs of two players. A program will be developed for each player individually, and periodic testing will be provided to analyze the player's improvements. Through the use of plyometric exercises, weight training, and agility drills, players will not only find themselves improving on the ice, but they will be learning how to specifically train for hockey on their own.
