Why DHA?
Over the last 7 years my son has participated in many different types of hockey schools and training classes. Power skating, stickhandling, shooting, passing, edge work, agility and stride mechanics have all been covered. Each of these clinics have been necessary in his development, but have come with a price. I’m not talking about the price of the clinics, but the time in planning and cost of travel to get this training. Piecing together programs and driving an hour everyday for a week becomes exhausting.
Most of these weekly run clinics have been very beneficial. The only problem was after that week he was off the ice and not practicing what he had just learned. The best plans are well written and executed over a long period of time. We have all heard of the 10,000 Hour Rule, claiming that the key to success in any field is practicing a specific task for a total of around 10,000 hours.
DHA offers a balanced program with each student receiving age or skill appropriate training. Edge work, stride mechanics, stickhandling moves, shooting techniques and attitude will all be evaluated. On ice and Off ice testing is done at the beginning and end of each 4wk session. Each student is given a report card at the end of each 4 week session showing their progression.
The program is designed for serious athletes that want to take their game to the next level. We are not a babysitting service and students may be asked to leave for poor behavior and/or lack of effort.
