Pre-STARSkate

 

Pre-STARSkate for 5-8-year-olds

Pre-STARSkate is a figure skating program offered in conjunction with the CanSkate program. Skaters at the CanSkate Stage 4 level are eligible for this program. Lessons are conducted in a group format, led by an NCCP-certified professional coach. Trained Program Assistants assist professional coaches.

Skaters who should consider this program are those interested in entering the Skate Canada STARSkate or Podium Pathway programs.

  • This program introduces skaters to the basic skills needed for the STARSkate or Podium Pathway program.
  • Skaters will be encouraged to practice their skills independently, a crucial aspect of the STARSkate program.
  • After completing this program, they are ready to move to the large ice surface, retain an NCCP-certified professional coach, and participate in private instruction.
  • Skaters may attend this program for up to 2 years.
  • Skaters must receive an invitation from a coach before registering.
  • New to the club and think this is the correct program? /pages/about-us/our-coaches/Contact coach Sonya before registering.
  • The skater will receive a registration code from Sonya to complete the registration process.
  • Professional figure skates are required.
  • Must be 5-8 years old.

Pre-STARSkate for 9-15-year-olds

This program will provide additional instruction to skaters who want to improve their figure skating skills but do not wish to advance to the next level (STARSkate).

  • Professional figure skates are required.
  • Must be 9-15 years old.
  • This is not a learn-to-skate program, and the focus will be on figure skating.
  • New to the club and think this is the correct program? /pages/about-us/our-coaches/Contact coach Sonya before registering.
  • The skater will receive a registration code from Sonya to complete the registration process.

If you are new to this program, here is what you will need to get on the ice:

A warm sweater or fleece coat, and a vest, if you have one. Leggings or maybe even sweatpants. Mittens are required. Anything a bit more form-fitting yet still warm. Whatever you wore for CanSkate (minus any snow pants) would work to get started. The coaches will help guide you :)
