Class descriptions
Each of these classes are 25 minutes of instruction with 25 minutes of supervised practice. Level 1 classes will always have class 1st followed by Practice. Level 2 classes may be offered with class first followed by practice or with practice first followed by instruction. This will depend on space and registration sign ups. Level 3 and 4 classes will always have practice first followed by instruction.
Instructors will use games, and various techniques to teach each level of skating. Our goal is to always keep classes small with a 6:1 ratio. However, classes may be a bit larger with higher levels of skating skills. With larger classes, we will do our best to provide an assistant to the classes to ensure all skater get the best class possible.
