How It Works
Snowplow Sam
Young skaters start in Snowplow Sam 1 – 4 Learn to Skate is for skaters 3 – 5-year-olds that have never been on skates. Sign your skater(s) up for Snowplow Sam level 1 (SS1) and we’ll move them to the level that best fits their skills. Each level completed prepares skaters for the next level.
*Your skates and any bike, hockey, or snowboarding helmet required.
Basic Skills
Next, skaters move on to Basic 1 – 6 Learn to Skate is for children new to skating ages 6 to 17 years old. There are 6 levels in the Basic Learn to Skate program. Students will be moved to new levels once the skills are mastered.
*Your skates are required and helmets are recommended.
Register for Basic Skills Learn to Skate.
Once a skater has passed Basic 2, they can add The Academy for figure skating skills or Hockey Skate to advance their learning.
The Academy
Academy Skate is for skaters that have completed Basic 2 and want to accelerate their figure skating skills. Academy is a non-stop, fast-paced lesson that will help ice skaters master forward and backward crossovers, skating on one foot, and more.

The Hockey curriculum is designed for skaters that have completed Basic 1 to teach the fundamentals of hockey skating. In four badge levels, skaters will learn how
to maneuver faster and be more agile on the ice.

Free Skate
Free Skate is for figure skaters that have passed the Learn to Skate Program. This skate program provides training for a variety of intensifying skating skills like spins and jumps. Each level builds on the previous skills, providing skaters a solid foundation.
