Where Should I Begin?

At Sprinker Ice Arena we have group lessons for all ages and abilities. Participants who have never taken skating lessons should register for PreSkate 1 or Beginning 1, depending on their age. For skaters with some experience, the ISI Program Coordinator or Skating Director is available to assist in selecting the appropriate class.

Do I need my own skates?

Rental skates are included in the cost of the lesson. If you would like to purchase skates, Riedell Figure Skates are available starting as low as $55.00.

How will I advance?

Each student will be evaluated on the first & second day of class to ensure that the class level matches the student's ability. Skill achievement tests take place on the last week of class. Upon evaluation the instructor will recommend the appropriate level for the skater's next session of class. Through the ISI Learn to Skate program, each skater has the opportunity to continue to advance as far as he or she desires. A skater can master skills to feel more comfortable skating on a public session, or he or she can work towards competitive recreational skating, and more.

At Sprinker Recreation Center a series of outstanding programs have been designed for the beginning recreational skater to the highly competitive skater under the guidelines of the U.S. Figure Skating and the Ice Skating Institute (ISI) weSKATE Curriculum.

Our basic skills programs are designed for the recreational skater-with teaching, testing, and award ribbon/patches available for different levels of achievement in basic skills and freestyle. For competitive skaters there are Freestyle, Power, and Dance session available at a variety of times during the week.
