We are nearing the end of another wonderful skating season, with programs wrapping up at the end of April.

Thank you to our skaters and families for being part of such a memorable year. Stay tuned for exciting updates on what’s ahead next season!

 

 

SKILL-BUILDING OPPORTUNITIES THROUGHOUT THE SEASON

Skating clinics are short-term, focused training sessions designed to help skaters improve specific skills and techniques beyond regular programming.
 
This year's Clinic will have three amazing on-ice coaches, focused on singles and synchronized skating elements.  There will also be parent sessions for parents of Arctic Winter Games and Synchro teams to learn about competition and answer questions.
