SOME HELPFUL HINTS

• Arrive approximately 20 minutes before the first lesson to gauge how much time is needed for you to pick up rental skates (if you need them) and familiarize yourself with the ice skating rink.
• Skaters should dress warmly, using gloves, hats and layered clothing to be absolutely comfortable. Parents of skaters under 5 yeas of age, should consider providing their youngsters with a bike helmet for additional protection. Better safe than sorry.
• Practice every week and you’ll improve by leaps and bounds, not to mention spins, tool! We strongly urge skaters to join the Ice Skating Institute. Please ask your director or cashier for a brochure explaining the value of this program.

(Note: Stroking, Jump & Spin, Syncronized Skating and Modern/Ballet Classes are also available.)

Private lessons may be scheduled to enhance your Progress.
Ask your Skating Director for further details!
