The learn to skate program provides year-round skating instruction for participants ages 3 years and older. We offer two skating programs:

• figure skating
• hockey skating

Learn to skate has an instructor-to-participant ratio of 1:8, so we can give your child lots of one-on-one instruction.

The learn to skate program follows the basic skills program sponsored by U.S. Figure Skating.

Learn to skate also includes classes for Special Olympians.
