- Tot lessons last one half hour. Skaters will work on Snowplow Sam skills with their instructor. We ask that parents of tot skaters stay at the rink during the lesson in case their skater needs them. Once a tot can skate independently across the ice, the tot may stay for an extra half hour of supervised practice time. Your tot's instructor will tell you when your tot is able to join the older students during practice ice.
- Basic Skills lessons last one hour. Half of the hour will be spent on focused instruction within a small group, and the other half of the hour will be spent in supervised practice of these skills. Some skaters will be in focus groups during the first half of the hour, others during the second half of the hour. This includes skaters in Basic Hockey Skills.
- Hockey Skating Skills classes last one hour. The class will be taught as a series of guided drills to increase skill level skating with and without a hockey stick.
Skaters’ conduct on the ice during instruction time is key to a pleasant and safe learning experience for yourself and others. Following a few simple rules and listening to your instructor will ensure more rapid progress, mastery of skills, and increased skating satisfaction.
