 Learn To Skate Programs

 

This is where skaters have the opportunity to develop a life-long interest in the sport. CANSkate serves as a feeder into the STARSkate & Competitive Program; however, it is also ideal as a means of preparing skaters for hockey, ringette, speed skating and even pleasure skating. Teen and Adult sessions are for those that also wish to learn the sport or improve on their skills without having to skate on the same session as the little children.

 

Ajax Skating club is proud to have all its programs taught by trained and NCCP-certified professional coaches, who are assisted by trained Program Assistants. Our coaches are very focused on proper technique and will devote time to the details of skating, to develop skaters' agility, balance and control.

 

All participants must

  • a CSA-approved hockey helmet up to and including stage 5, due to covid-19 helmet face shields are strongly recommended for all skaters.
  • No bike helmets permitted. THIS IS A MANDATORY REQUIREMENT
  • wear warm clothing which allows ease of movement. Jeans are not permitted.
  • wear warm mittens or gloves. THIS IS A MANDATORY REQUIREMENT.
