Class Levels:
Snowplow (Ages 3-5): It's all about fun! Get your skater on the ice by introducing them to the basics. Our snowplow levels (1-4) get them moving by allowing them to feel comfortable on the ice.
Basic Skills (Age 6+): Our basic skills classes get your skater comfortable with moving across the ice! Upon completing the 6 levels your skater will master skills necessary to succeed in hockey or figure skating!
Pre-Free Skate/Free Skate: This class is for skaters who have accomplished the Basic 1-6 curriculum. This class will transition your skater from the basic skills to the more advanced within the Learn to Skate structure.
Teen/Adult: This class is for teens and adults of all skating levels.
Class instruction is from 5:45-6:15 PM, followed by Practice Time for the remaining 15 minutes where skaters can practice their skills, participate in on-ice games, or receive additional 1-1 instruction through Booster Lessons (additional registration required for 1-1 Booster Lesson).
Booster Lessons:
These supplemental lessons provide one-on-one instruction to refine skills in your level for Snowplow Sam, Basic Skills, Pre-Freeskate, and Hockey Skills skaters. Booster Lessons will be on the ice with a member of our Learn to Skate staff on Tuesdays at either 5:30-5:45 PM or 6:15-6:30 PM. Purchase includes one 15-minute lesson at the date and time that you register for.
Booster Lesson Cancellation/Refund Policy: Booster Lesson can be rescheduled for another week with 48 hours advance notice. Refunds not available for cancellation or no show.
Power Skating Class:
This add-on class on Tuesdays from 5:30-5:45 PM will focus on the basics of power skating for skaters in Basic 4 and up. Skaters will work on skills like speed, agility, and balance that will help them in all aspects of skating! This ticket covers as many weeks of the class as you may choose to attend out of this 6-week session.
