Spring 2025 Learn to Skate Semester
Our Learn to Skate USA figure skating group classes are available for students ages 5 to 18, beginners through advanced skaters. Classes begin with the fundamentals and progress to more advanced and specialized skills
Structure of Session
The Spring 2025 semester begins Tuesday, March 25th and Saturday, March 29th. This is a 30 minute group lesson followed by independent practice ice**. Classes meet once a week (Skaters may choose Tuesday classes or Saturday classes when registering), and classes include skate rental.
**Practice Ice: Skaters may utilize the remaining time following their lesson as optional practice ice, provided they are able to skate independently and without assistance. If a coach determines that a participant is unable to skate without assistance, the skater will not be permitted to stay for practice ice until they are ready to practice independently.
Recommended Enrollment Levels:
New skaters ages 5-6 –> Snowplow 1.
New skaters ages 7-18 interested in figure skating –> Basic 1.
Returning skaters should enroll in the level listed on their most recent Progress Report (included in semester graduation packets).

We will not be offering traditional adult class options during our spring semester. Please watch our website for alternative adult lesson opportunities. Adults interested in learning to skate should visit our private lesson page
