We know that getting into skating can sometimes be hard and sticking to it is rarely easy. Whether you are using our programs to move into figure skating, hockey or just for fun, there is still a lot of involvement required.

Because our Dad has been such an avid hockey player from the time he could walk, he made sure that his three girls could skate! Although we did not move into hockey like he had planned, he did become a proud figure skating father as his daughters found a love for the sport. All the while, our mom became not only a proud figure skating mother, but also a chauffeur, seamstress, executive board member, decorator, off-ice practice coach, fundraiser, supporter, music player, advertising director, team manager, and much more. As for their three daughters, we practiced, tested, competed, and became coaches to continue our involvement in the sport. Our main goal as coaches is to pass on a love of skating to all of the skaters we teach and provide them with the best opportunities to reach their highest potential while having fun and feeling challenged. 

Throughout all of this, we have learned some ways to make skating easier and more enjoyable.  Please consider our club's Tips and Tricks and do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns.
