We are committed to teaching fundamental skating skills to help build a lifelong love of ice sports. PreCanSkate is a component of the Canskate program. Skaters recommended to the PreCanskate program are skaters who are skating for the first time or those skaters who need a little time to get their confidence and balance on the ice. Skaters in the Pre-Canskate program can be of any age and skaters who need to work on the seven basic skills to ready them for Stage 1 of Canskate. CanSkate is Skate Canada’s flagship learn-to- skate program, designed for beginners of all ages. Skate Thompson offers this dynamic program that focuses on fun, participation and basic skill development. Sessions are conducted by NCCP trained Skate Canada Professional Coaches. All the basic skating skills for Hockey, Ringette, Figure Skating or pleasure skating will be introduced. CanPowerSkate is an action-packed, high energy instructional power skating program geared to hockey and ringette skaters that focuses on balance, power, agility, speed and endurance. Skills, techniques and conditioning drills are taught in a progressive format that emphasizes how the skills apply to game situations. It is geared to skaters who have already mastered basic skating skills. AdultSkate offers Learn-to-Skate, test or a place for skaters to simply practice and improve their skating skills. Group and private lessons are available. StarSkate/CompetitiveSkate offer opportunities for skaters of all ages to develop fundamental figure skating skills in the areas of ice dance, skating skills, free skate and interpretive skating.
