HOCKEY and RINGETTE Skating Skills

 
This program focuses on specific skating skills for hockey and ringette and is coached by professional Skate Canada Can-Power coaches. Lessons emphasize balance, power, agility, speed and endurance. The program will also help to increase the length of stride as well as the efficiency of forward and backward skating. 
 
Hockey and Ringette Skating Skills lessons will be offered as a Drop In program only.  Skaters will be required to register in advance and pay the Skate Canada Membership fee of $44.  This fee is required by Skate Canada for all participants of programs offered by our club and is not retained by Ajax Skating Club.  This fee includes insurance for the skater while they are participating in any Ajax Skating Club program and is only paid once per skating year (Sept 1 - Aug 31).
 
 
Each Session is 50 mins and costs $20.  For convenience a punch card will be available for purchase and can be loaded with as many $20 sessions as desired.
 
Please go to our registration page to register for the program.  If you require assistance or have further questions please feel free to visit or call the office during regular office hours.
