Having taught millions the skills needed to achieve their recreational and competitive dreams on the ice, CanSkate is the best learn-to-skate program in Canada. Period. Designed for beginners of all ages—including children, adults, and athletes with disabilities (AWAD)—CanSkate helps you improve basic skating skills for figure skating, hockey, ringette, or speed skating, while promoting fitness and fun. We work with a nationally tested curriculum that focuses on balance, control, and agility while empowering skaters to hone essential skills, in a safe and friendly environment. Countless Canadians, from World and Olympic champions to NHL stars, took their first strides through the CanSkate program. Taught by NCCP- Certified Coaches, CanSkate is your pathway to skating success. What to Expect Lessons are provided in a group format with a maximum coach-to-student ratio of 1:10. Skaters will follow on-ice circuits to develop their balance, agility, and control in accordance with the Skate Canada badge recognition system*. Skaters progress will be updated through their online account and badges and ribbons will be given to skaters as they earn them through the course of the session. Parents may inquire with the session coordinator about arranging private lessons before the session begins for additional practice time. What is Needed? Proper fitted hockey or figure skates, splash pants, a warm sweater or jacket, waterproof mittens, and a CSA approved hockey helmet *ski helmets are not permitted. We recommend a helmet with a cage for all levels of skaters.
