What is a master coach?
There are a lot of good hockey coaches around, but few are masters. Being a master coach is more than knowing the material, it is about knowing who you are teaching and how to get the best out of them.

zhlédnutí 161Před rokem

zhlédnutí 101Před rokem

Technical skills consist of the individual skills of skating, stickhandling, and shooting. Tactical skills are how you use technical skills in a game. Finally, systematic is how you use the technical and tactical skills wit...

"Conditioning kids" ... here's me working on this shit as a 35 y/o man 😂
I thought that logo was gonna smash you flat
So glad I found your channel again, your videos have been super helpful, learned a few skating skills on here that I couldn't find anywhere else!!
I know your video says for 3-6 year olds, but I have made it a goal to learn to skate this year and your entire series is very helpful to me as an adult as well! Thanks.
I need this video, but for 30-60 year olds :D XD
Really old video, but thought I'd ask anyhow. My son says his back starts to hurt after games. Would this be caused by not enough knee bend and him hinging his hips too much?
That would cause a bit of back pain yes. But if your son is new to skating, he's probably using a lot of muscles he usually doesn't. In time his body will get stronger and the new muscles will adapt. Even after taking a 5-6 month break, my muscles are still unusually sore after getting back on the ice
The crazy thing is nobody ever taught me how to do this and I didn’t even know what it was. I just naturally started doing this one day and somebody on my team pointed it out asking wtf I was doing. Someone on one of my other teams just this past weekend pointed out another thing I do. They said I point my feet straight in a line when I’m protecting the puck and using the front one to angle my directions. I was like wtf.
Thanks for all of your beginner balance tutorials - not enough out there. I'm 32 just learning to skate but think I fall under the 3-6 age category lol
Amazing
Your video are awesome! wow!
Great tip at the end
Here I am, 50+ years old, just learning to skate, AND HAVING A BALL!!!!!! Thank you for a great tutorial, coach!!!!
Nice
👌🏻🌟
🎶 p̶r̶o̶m̶o̶s̶m̶
Ignite games are unbelievable
mike.varveris29 what a save 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you. I'm trying to learn hockey skills but unfortunately my parents don't have enough money to make me do hockey. I just borrow shoes from my friends at the Ice Skating rink Love the video btw, short and straight to the point
Why no bobbing?
So the forward stride is pushing off the heel. Ok that's probably why my blades slide too much
How to squat down fully without leaning forward?
I don’t mean to complain but you and iTrain hockey……. Is it me that thinks wearing track suits makes these drills 50-70% easier when you’re not in full gear? I’d love for once to see a coach wear full gear do these drills with same level of ankle mobility lol as demonstrated in this video. Basically it’s impossible unless you’re a Pro. Or maybe kids/people doing drills should wear track suits and not lace up the top two eyelets like you did in this video. Did you know Daryl Evans doesn’t even USE LACES in his skates when he teaches power skating lol. Basically- the full track suit is like totally cheating
Is it normal to struggle with this drill without using a hockey stick?
Very importanta
This was really helpful I what he this and now I can do a power turn 😁
That’s how I was taught to do them.
Drill 1-5??? These aren't even drills!
Oof
It's great to see the gambits used by NHL stars like Makar & Hughes broken down into their component parts. Easy to tell a kid "Watch Makar & try to mimic him", much harder to SHOW a kid HOW to mimic Makar
Isn't that the iron cross?
nice rink
Hey old coach
My hips can't do that... yet 😭😭
You are amazing
Also where should weight be distributed on the foot when taking a stride? Balls of feet? Heels? Outside edge of foot? Inside edge of foot?
How do you get to the inside edge of the skate blade without ankle rocking or knocking knees (bending knees inward)? Also extreme balancing issues just standing without leaning in on blades, inside or out for stability (which is obviously bad).
Your tutorial was super simple and straight-forward, just want we wanted to see. Wish all tutorials were straight-forward like this one is. Thank you coach!
Wow!! Thank you from a passionate figure skater!!
This is well good. All I need now is to wait three months for the rinks to open ... 🤣
mine are still closed...
Be nice if I could actually get up that way - unlike the skate you are standing up on, mine moves too much so I can’t stand up on it.
You have to put all of your weight on the leg you want to stand up on.
@@tracy546 well, I think I’m doing that; maybe I need to have the skate angled a bit more to the side so that the direction I push up isn’t parallel to the blade? I just can’t seem to keep the first blade from sliding while I am trying to stand up on it.
@@tracy546 until I figure it out, I’ll have to skate near the wall so that I can get up
@@jerrytravelstead1075 I am sure you will figure it out.
@@tracy546 thanks, also took many attempts to finally get up on 2 skis after a fall: just taking off 1 is how I did it for a while, but if it’s steeper, much easier overall to get up on both rather than trying to click back into one ski
hockey is a sport, thank you for encouraging sportmanship + be courteous in life skills.
You are welcome!
Ages 3-6 I'm 17-
SAME 😭😭😭 I got my first lesson this Saturday 🥺
@@evelyngomez4680 how was it??? I’m 16 and I’m starting mine this weekend. I’m so nervous tbh hopefully I don’t die cuz I’m fat💀😭
@@ji0419 I’m overweight, but I ended up being ok ❤️❤️ I don’t know how to explain it, but I had to learn how to move and be in control of the body I’m in
THANKS

You prob wont respond but i have this problem were i feel like i have no time. Like faceoff win on my tape on the line and i feel like i dont have time to walk or pass. So i either dump or shoot. Maybe i lack confidence. But i want to develop into a strong ofencive defencman and i want to know how i can work to break this
In a five on five situations, you will not have much time when you get the puck. Focus on moving laterally, and recognizing when a lane opens up. Also, changing the angle of your shot release, by pulling the puck in when shooting, will help you get the shot through an approaching forward.
Popovic Hockey Academy thank you for respond i will try and use this and thjnk faster
I realize your comment was a year ago but I highly recommend you have someone video your shifts. Make sure they get most of the ice so you can see what you are doing when you don't have the puck in addition to when you have the puck. The situation you describe will have many variables so responding to it with ideas or suggestions will be much less effective.
I like it
