CanSkate (5+) :: St. Albert Skating Centre

CANSKATE (5+)

The "First Steps" to our "Learn to Skate" program, designed for beginners of all ages. When you sign up for CanSkate you will be in a program that focuses on fun, participation, and basic skill development. Your skater will earn badges and other incentives as he/she learns the fundamental skating skills. Lessons are in a group format and led by a CanSkate Certified Professional Coach. Professional Coaches are assisted by trained Program Assistants (PA's). The Coach/student ratio is 1:10. Skaters progress at their own rate and coaches make sessions active using teaching aids, music and a wide variety of activities that create a fun environment and promote learning. CanSkate is the feeder program to all other Skate Canada Skating Programs.

Winter 2022 Registration is now OPEN!!!

Recommended amount of skating days:

1 or 2 days a week in Fall and/or Winter

2 days/week in Summer.

Program consists of:

Stages 1-6 levels, and current fundamental movements plus four new components have been reconfigured into three fundamental areas: Balance, Control, and Agility.
