What class should I sign up for if I've never skated?

All skaters new to the ice should sign up for Basic Skills lessons. You will learn all you need to know to get started with skating in a fun and safe environment. You will be placed in groups by ability level, so you will be skating with other skaters working on the same skills as you.
Basic Skills lessons are held once a week during each six-week session (a total of four sessions through the skating season). Lessons are available Friday evenings from 6:30-7:30pm or Saturday mornings from 11:45am-12:45pm. Note that the Beginner Figure Skating class (previously named "Advnaced Youth") is now available on Monday and on Friday evenings. See the Schedule for details. The cost for each set of six lessons is $85.
If you are new to skating and do not own skates, please read "What kind of ice skates should I buy", below.
