CanSkate (brand new skaters or those working on badge 1 sessions will NOT being offered at this time)
CANSkate is Skate Canada's flagship learn-to-skate program, designed for children ages 5 and up from beginner to advanced. 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.
(If your skater has never skated before, and is between the ages of 3-4 please follow the link to our PreCanSkate program.
The PRE-CanSkate and CANSkate programs focus on the development of 3 fundamental movements organized in 6 stages of learning with continuous on-ice movement. The on-ice delivery emphasizes the use of newer and more dynamic small group (max of 10) teaching concepts including Fast Track and Station Rotation all of which has been proven to increase practice opportunities and improve the rate of skill acquisition among skaters. More visual aids and music are used to create a fun, stimulating and welcoming environment. At the end of every season skaters will receive report cards along with award ribbons or badges.Downloadable Chart
