Classes are taught in a safe and positive environment, incorporating fun and games making class time an enjoyable experience for all.

Class Skills: Fall and get up on ice, March in place and forward, Two-foot glide, Forward swizzles and Backward wiggles.

Basic Skills teaches the FUNdamentals of ice skating and provides the best foundation for figure skating and hockey. Six progressive levels introduce forward and backward skating, stops, edges, crossovers and turns. Upon completion of the Basic Skills 1–6 levels, skaters will be able to confidently advance to more specialized areas of skating (see chart below). Skaters will progress at their own rate and advance after skill mastery is demonstrated/tested.

The Adult curriculum is designed for both beginning and experienced adult skaters who wish to improve their skating skills. Participation in the program will help promote physical fitness and improve balance and coordination while teaching proper skating techniques. Divided into six levels from basic skating to more advanced skills, adult skaters will progress at an individual rate while being challenged and motivated. Based on prior skating experience, adults may choose to begin at the level that best matches their skill base. Class skills are the same as the Basic 1 through 6 levels but taught at a pace that suits adults.

This is a Thursday morning class time, to align with Homeschool activities. Classes are 30 minute group lessons (all Basic 1 through Freeskate 2) with a 30-minute practice time following directly after class.

Each free skate level is comprised of a variety of progressive skating skills, transitions, spins and jumps — all of which build on the previous skill, providing skaters a strong foundation of all elements.

Instructors will focus on quality and mastery of skills. Class skills continue to work on footwork at each level but also include spins and jumps.
