kclark87 28 Report post Posted February 11, 2016 Anyone have an updates on any of these hockey camps? Im a newer player and ice time and learning opportunities are quite limited in my area. Really interested in doing one of these camps to improve my skill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TBR 11 Report post Posted February 12, 2016 Went to Heartland as a kid back in the late 80's. Can't say enough good things about the quality of the training on and off the ice. Recommended it to a lot of friends and their kids as well. They were all extremely satisfied with their experiences. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Really interested in doing one of these camps to improve my skill.Laura Stamm and Robby Glantz powerskating camps, while not specifically geared to adults, will take adults - since it's primarily individual skills, they worry more about what level you're at than what age you are. As you might guess it's predominantly balance and skating, with some stickhandling and puckwork. I enjoyed both the camps I went to. I went to Weekend Warriors a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it. The instruction is great and the groups are small enough that you get plenty of individual attention, plus there is video of both individual skating and the scrimmages, and off-ice discussion sessions. They are on the expensive side, though they do offer a scholarship program. It's also a lot of ice time and I found it pretty intense - each ice time is 2 hours, and Friday and Saturday both have two sessions (AM and PM). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LoneStar77 25 Report post Posted February 19, 2016 I'm going back for a 2nd Weekend Warriors Camp this fall. I drive about an hour & half (or more depending on traffic) one way to play ice hockey so I don't get much ice time other than the adult league games I get to participate in, the high cost for me is a side effect of the extra ice time with decent instruction (something else I rarely get during the typical beer league game). I enjoyed the first camp immensely & am hoping this time around it is just as good or better.The first ice session focused mainly on power skating like drills which is something I had never done before. I wish we had more time to scrimmage, but the drills were great skill builders & the coaches were very encouraging & wanted you to learn & get better, not just go through the motions.

Weekend Warriors in Dallas is $750 (or $710 if you're an alum & are bringing back your previous jersey & socks). That does not include travel or lodging (thankfully my folks live in the area so I will stay with them). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From what Ive found its a little pricey if you have to travel. About $2k for most of them. That includes the camp, hotel and flight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sectachrome 40 Report post Posted February 24, 2016 Thinking about going to the Weekend Warriors camp in CO. For those of you who have attended before, what has the age mix been like? Judging by the pics on their site it looks like an older crowd (I'm 29) which is fine, but it would be nice to have some other people closer to my age too.

x-axis 44 Report post Posted February 24, 2016 I've been to the Tahoe one a long time ago, and you'll get a wide range of ages. Many people return annually. In all honesty, you won't have time to be concerned with how old every one is. You'll be too busy playing hockey or too tired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They say the Vail Camp is one of the better ones because of the location - lots of people travel in & use it as a minivacation & there are groups that go out at night together for some adult beverages. The last one I went to in Dallas was a broad mix of ages (I was 35-36) & there were younger guys (early 30s) up to a few guys that probably were almost old enough to be my dad. I don't think you'll feel out of place at all, you're all there to learn to play hockey better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tonguesOUT4life 17 Report post Posted April 12, 2016 Been to heartland , it doesn't matter what level you are , it's paradise .. I met up and bunked in with a couple of my friends who at that time played in echl, sphl and so on .. We had a gym and unlimited ice time at our disposal, the food was amazing, Steve Jensen is a really good man and it doesn't matter if you play in the NHL there's always room for improvement. You pay for quality and you get quality with quantity at Heartland .. Steve turned the lights on for me at 12 am by the shooting lanes outside. Just because you signed up it doesn't mean you have to attend any of the classes my buddies and myself didn't, we had our own routine and if the staff needed any help we were there. It's a paradise man ... Paradise... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
