Program Overview

This learn to skate program gives skaters of all levels and ages the tools they need to learn and refine their skills. Whether you are interested in figure skating, hockey or just looking for a fun challenge, this program is for you! Each skater will be provided with a 30-minute group lesson from one of our instructors as well as a 30 minute practice to work on individual skills.

Basic Skills: This skating program guides new skaters through carefully graduated maneuvers, ensuring rapid progress over short time periods and providing direction and building competency in all important foundation moves. Forward and backward skating, stopping, turning, and edges are taught in exciting, low cost group lessons.

Advanced Skills Program: A full ice, group lesson experience which focuses on development of skating skills, spins, jumps, stroking, etc. The Advanced Skills program is a great bridge to higher level skating.
