Ice Explorers
For ages 3-4. Ice Explorers is a class for independent pre-school aged children that focuses on gently acquainting skaters with the ice and developing coordination in a creative and playful environment. 

Parent & Tot
For ages 3-4. The Parent & Tot class is a parent participation version of our Ice Explorers class for young beginners. Parents should be sufficiently comfortable on ice skates to assist their child. Children who can move and get up on their own should register for Ice Explorers (age 3) or Snowplow Sam (age 4).

Snowplow Sam 1-4
For ages 4-5. The Snowplow Sam levels are introductory classes divided into four progressive levels allowing children with no prior skating experience to build confidence while learning the basic skills of skating. First time skaters will learn basic balance, proper falling and getting up, beginning forward skating and two foot glides. The progression through the Snowplow levels will include beginning backward skating, forward and backward swizzles, and snowplow stops.

Pre-Hockey
Prerequisite: Snowplow Sam 1 & 2 (in hockey skates)
For ages 4-7. Pre-Hockey is intended for children who are enthusiastic about hockey. Skaters will learn balance, basic forward and backward skating, glides, stops, turns and beginning crossovers. Required equipment includes hockey skates, hockey helmet with a face cage, shin guards, hockey gloves and a stick.

Basic Skills 1 & 2
For ages 6+. 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. Levels 1 & 2 allow new skaters with little to no experience learn basic forward skating, beginning and backward skating, one and two foot glides and much more! 

Basic Skills 3 & 4

Junior Figure Skating Academy
Skaters are eligible after completing Basic level 6. Junior Figure Skating Academy is an accelerated program designed for skaters interested in becoming figure skaters that meets four times a week during the full season (typically September-June). Skaters are encouraged to come as often as possible, but at least 2-3 times per week. Throughout the course of the program, skaters will work towards refining their basic skills and moving into the freestyle levels with a concentration on jumps, spins and connecting moves.
