Learn-to-Skate Programs: Learn-to-Skate | Freestyle & Adult Workshop |
Adults Only Skating Workshop
| FS School Our goal is to teach the fundamentals of skating using a variety of
safe and enjoyable instructional techniques. ISCC
uses the US Figure Skating Basic Skills program designed to take skaters
from beginner to advanced classes. The
Learn to Skate program strives to develop strong basic skating skills (i.e.
forward & backward skating, edges, turns, basic spins & jumps),
self-confidence and encourages participation at a recreational level. Learn
to Skate provides exercise and enjoyment for the whole family!

Parents/siblings of Learn to Skate skaters are invited to skate during the

recommended. Remember to dress warmly. Freestyle & Adult Workshop is for skaters who have passed through Basic 6 or Adult 4. Class consists of 50 minutes on ice group instruction divided into children as well as adult groups based on the level working on. Prior to the on ice instruction there will be 30 minutes of off ice group instruction held upstairs in Studio 202. Off ice classes consist of dance, conditioning, strengthening and jump instruction taught by certified fitness instructors and figure skating coaches. Please have participants wear sneakers for off ice class. Adults
Only Skating Workshop is designed for adults to learn to skate and sharpen
their current skating skills in a group setting.
Each class consists of 45 minutes of group instruction followed
by 15 minutes of open practice time.
Classes will be divided based on level working on.
Adults of all skating levels are encouraged to attend. This
program is for the more serious skater who wishes to skate two days a week
and further enhance their skating skills in a more aggressive manor than the
regular Learn to Skate or Freestyle Workshop program. Students will have 45
minutes of on ice group instruction, divided into groups base on age and
ability. Students will work on skills from the US Figure Skating Basic
Skills and Freestyle levels. Students will be taught by ISCC's staff of
world class coaches. Focus will be on stroke development, edges, skating
posture and correct positioning. Students will be given 45 minutes of off
ice group instruction held upstairs in Studio 202. Off ice classes consist
of dance, conditioning, strengthening and jump instruction taught by
certified fitness instructors or figure skating coaches. Participants should
wear sneakers for off ice class. Students
may have a private lesson coach for an additional fee during the open
practice time, during ISCC’s Open Freestyle session or Public Sessions
(ice time paid at the front desk).
Private lessons are available by inquiring with the Learn to Skate
Director or asking a specific coach directly.
All private lesson fees are paid directly to the coach. There
are no refunds given once skater is registered. If skater withdraws from
the program, ISCC will issue a credit for classes not attended. Students may join a class at
any time
provided there is room in the class. If skater joins after the session has
begun, fees are pro-rated. You may not pro-rate the original fee if you
know that you will be missing a class for any reason. If you need to make up a missed class, you may do this during the same session as the
missed class. Make-up class credit may not be carried over to another session. All
Skaters in the ISCC Learn to Skate program must be current Basic Skills members of the United States Figure Skating
Association. The membership year is
September 1 to August 31. The membership must be renewed annually (see
application for current fee). Skaters will be tested throughout the session to determine their proper level. Sometimes, skaters will need to repeat a level to better prepare them for more difficult levels. Throughout the year, ISCC may offer special events for skaters in our Learn to Skate Program like exhibitions, recitals, competitions, etc. ISCC reserves the right to use a portion of the class time for demonstrations or clinics. Please
register one week prior to class starting. Walk-ons are permitted on a
class-by-class basis provided there is room. See application for current
fees. |
