Mobility is very important to focus on as a goaltender. Flexibility allows us to stretch out as far as we possibly can but mobility is adding control in these positions. Mobility is using the muscle in these positions so once we get on the ice and we have to reach to make a save, we will have enough control to recover and get ourselves back into a good position. Mobility also helps prevent injuries when we are in vulnerable positions. Here are a few Mobility exercise we... can do at home: 1. Clams- 10 reps with 3 second hold each leg. 2. Hip Circles- 5 circles each way, both legs. 3. Frog stretch- 15 second relax, 15 second with groin squeeze and knees going into the ground, 15 seconds pushing deeper into the stretch, and 15 seconds relaxed again. 4. Hip Internal Rotation- 10 reps with a 5 second squeeze on each rep. 5. T-Spine Rotation- 10 each side. 6. Cat Cows- 10 reps both ways. If you are doing these correctly, these exercises should be a little uncomfortable. If you don’t feel anything, you’re not doing it correctly. Go one time through all 6 exercises and if you feel good, do it on more time! Hope you enjoy! See more

Monday Movement Here is a great drill to do to focus on recovering. Notice how having your torso and hips rotate all the way through allows the push to be shorter. This will allow you to bring your whole body together, rather than have a trail leg. #goaliesaves #goalietraining #goaliedrills #goaliegear #goalielife

We want to send out a special s/o to Lorne Webber! We have had the pleasure of getting to work with Lorne and other members of visually impaired community in Edmonton over the past year.

Monday Movement This weeks skating drill is focused on simple precise movements. This drill was all shuffles, but you can choose any movement you want within the puck triangles. Try it out, and tag us in your drill!

Monday Movement Here is a X pattern skating drill with Damon Cunningham. The focus is on head checking early to find the visual spot to push to. It’s an easy drill to do for 2 minutes at your next practice. Try it out!

We are pleased to announce our camp registration is open for our 2019 camps. We have decided to scale back the number of goaltenders we are allowing in each camp to be able to teach more effectively in hopes of having a more personalized approach with each goaltender. In doing this we also have split the camp into two weeks, which allows us to work with the younger goaltenders in one week, and the older goaltenders the next week. This will also allow make a more specific pro...gram for each age group which we hope will enhance the skills each goaltenders learns. In saying all of this our prices have increased because of the changes we have made, we at Pure Goaltending hope that because of the changes we have made that each goaltender who attends will learn more skills during the week at our camp and have the appropriate time during the camp to practice/ put these skill into place. If you have any questions feel free to contact us.

Hockey is just as much a mental game as it is a physical one. It’s growing up hundreds, or thousands of miles away from your support system at times. It’s moving from city to city knowing your bags are better to stay packed. It’s having opportunity slam the door in your face more often than you’d think. It’s the classic ‘hockey parent’. It makes you learn how to build up a wall, and especially as a goalie, ignore all the hate that comes your way from fans some games. Always know that we’re here for you - there’s a team of 8 of us that have been through the hockey ringer, so trust us when we say that we will get you. Let your voice be heard #BellLetsTalk
