Which skates are right for me?

Advanced Classes Offered

Skaters must have passed the basic levels prior to entering these classes.

Adults: Adult classes are mixed levels.  We recommend that beginner adults start in the pre-alpha classes.

Stroking: Objective is to increase skater's endurance and speed according to ability level.  Open only to those skaters who have passed gamma.

Skating Skills: The objective is to develop increased power and strength by improving skating technique.  Good for beginning hockey players too.  Open to skaters who have passed gamma and have passed an evaluation.

Adult Hockey Class:  This is a "how to" class for adults to learn the skill, mechanics and rules of ice hockey.  All players must have a basic level of skating and must use full protective gear.

Synchronized Skating: This class provides the opportunity to work in a "team" environment.  Skaters learn to utilize skills that strengthen individual skating, basic technique, footwork, posture, presentation and rhythm.
