Frequently Asked Questions
Are private lessons available?
There are many reasons to hire a private coach for your child. Coaches can help skaters excel at a faster pace than in group lessons, supplement group lessons, provide assistance on a difficult skill, or help when the skater is ready to compete more seriously. If you are interested in private lessons, ask the Skating Director, for more details.
Coaches are independent contractors and all financial arrangements are made with them directly. Cost varies based on the rate of the instructor hired.
Can I continue with Learn-To-Skate (LTS) even though I have registered for the Bridge Program?
Yes. Combining LTS with the Bridge Program is a great way to increase your learning. Skating takes a lot of dedication and if you want to improve, it takes practice. The learning curve increases rapidly with even being on the ice twice per week. Combining LTS with the Bridge program is a great way to continue to develop.
What should I wear to the off-ice class?
Comfortable clothing, with an emphasis on sneakers. Cross-trainers or Aerobic shoes that give proper cushioning, as well as arch and lateral support, are best. Running shoes or fashionable sneakers are not recommended. For the ballet classes, dancewear, leggings, leotards, and ballet shoes are preferred but not required.
What should I wear to the on-ice class?
Student skaters should wear layers of comfortable clothing that allow movement & gloves/mittens.
