Learn to Skate

Cool off and learn how to ice skate!

Our Learn to Skate program offers upbeat and interactive classes that provide the fundamentals for recreational or competitive figure skating and ice hockey. We follow a structure that promotes skill development to help the athletes progress to figure skating or hockey. Offering three main programs, IC’s Snowballs, IC’s Skate School, and IC’s Hockey Superstars 101, we strive to help our skaters achieve their goals. Lastly, we follow the Learn to Skate USA nationally recognized program that is endorsed by US Figure Skating and USA Hockey.

From the first steps on the ice to mastering advanced techniques, and from children to adults, our program offers a curriculum for everyone. Our Learn to Skate program offers a dynamic system where athletes progress at their own rate and focus on development based on the ABCs of basic athleticism: Agility, Balance, Coordination, and Speed. Upon completion of the program, athletes can confidently advance to more focused areas of skating.
