Train Like a Pro: Private 1:1 Goalie Sessions with AHL Star Matt Davis at Joy Burns Arena

On the ice at Joy Burns Arena, at Denver University (2240 Buchtel Blvd S, Denver, CO 80210, USA), a one-hour private goalie session with AHL star Matt Davis is less lesson and more surgical upgrade. You skate into a private, protected zone on collegiate ice that has hosted high-level competition and NCAA championship preparation; here a single hour is mapped to the skills that matter: positioning, rebound control, reading shooters and the mental rhythms of the net.

These sessions are designed for goalies ages 8–20 and focus on individualized progress. Coach Davis, an NCAA national champion and current AHL goalie, combines on-ice drills with real-time feedback and a post-practice review that leaves a clear list of next steps. The setup is straightforward: one-on-one time on Denver University ice, a coach who knows the pro pathway, and a dedicated locker room for quick transitions. For traveling families and local competitors the model is efficient: arrive 30 minutes early to check in at the Joy Burns Arena main lobby front desk, provide the goalie's name and you'll be assigned a locker room before you take the ice.

What makes this offering stand out in Denver’s sports scene is the mix of elite-level coaching and an intimate learning environment. The ice feels wide open but controlled—sheets cleared, pucks focused, and instruction tuned to each player's age and experience. Whether a teenager chasing college looks or a youth tightening fundamentals, the session balances physical mechanics—angles, crease movement, save selection—with mental work: game-reading, confidence under pressure, and practice plans you can build on.

Practical details are clean: sessions run one hour and cost $150 per hour, which includes coach ice time and facility fees. The booking policy offers flexibility with a full refund for cancellations made at least three days in advance. Because this is private instruction on a university rink, space is limited to single-goalie slots, so plan ahead during high-demand seasons.

There is an intangible edge to training alongside a pro: attention is granular, cues are specific, and the post-session review translates drills into a season-long development plan. Parents and coaches will appreciate the measurable feedback and the curriculum-oriented approach that targets weaknesses while preserving confidence. For goalies intent on moving to the next level, a single hour here can reframe technique, timing, and decision-making in ways that carry beyond practice.

If you want professional focus, efficient use of ice time, and a clear developmental roadmap, book a Private 1:1 Goalie Session at Joy Burns Arena and turn one hour into an off-season advantage. Bring full goalie equipment, a focused mindset, and a notebook for the post-practice review so you leave with concrete drills, measurable goals, and a prioritized action plan for the season ahead.
