Learn to Skate (LTS) Program
The LTS Program:Learn-to-Skate (LTS) classes offer skaters the opportunity to work on developing skills for ice sports from figure skating to ice hockey as well as recreational skating. Our classes include a 30 minute group skill lesson and 30 minutes of practice time. Classes are available for all ages (3+) and skill levels. Coaches will evaluate the skaters throughout the sessions with skill testing the 6th week. Our goal is to advance skaters at their own pace, and also promote skaters who are capable of skating in higher levels. All Sessions take place at Metro ice Sport Facility |
Registration InformationSix week sessions are $150 per Skater. Each session includes 6 classes – Sessions are held on Tuesdays, Fridays, or Saturdays To register, print a registration form NEED TO GET FORM |
Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat happens if a student misses a class? Make-up classes are available depending on availability of space other classes (for example, Saturday skaters may make up a class on Tuesday or Friday). What is the class size? Classes are limited to 15 skaters. What attire should a student wear to lessons? Skaters must wear a pair of gloves. IFSA does not provide helmets. Skaters are welcome to wear helmets but must provide their own. Does IFSA have dedicated ice time? Practice Ice will be available to students and registered parents. How is billing handled if a student starts classes mid-session? If a student registers after the first day, the registration will be prorated for the remaining classes in the session. What is the youngest a student can be to register for ISFA? The youngest age for Snowplow depends on the individual skater. The skater must be able to be on ice, without a parent, and be able to take directions from a group leader. We’ve found that the age for this varies, and we have had success with skaters as young as 2 years old – they must be able to walk first. Are skates included? Our organization has a mix of sizes available for skaters in our classes, and use of a pair of skates is included with registration. These skates are general purpose recreation skates, and have a figure skating toe pick and tail on the blade. While we have a variety of sizes available, we cannot guarantee availability of a particular size – please arrive early to ensure you get first pick. If we’re short a size, we will attempt to have it available for the next class. Skaters are welcome to bring their own skates. Plus we sell a professional (new or used) skates. |
