About the Program

CanSkate is a dynamic learn-to-skate program that focuses on fun, participation and basic skill development. Based on Skate Canada’s long term athlete development (LTAD) principles, CanSkate centers on physical literacy and the fundamental skills needed to take part in any ice sport or to skate as a recreational activity. Canskaters must be 5 years of age OR passed stage one to do this program.

There are 6 Stages which focus on Balance, Control and Agility and introduce skaters to Figure Skating, Hockey/Ringette and Speed.

Taught by NCCP-trained professional coaches, assisted by trained program assistants.

If your child is under 6 and has received their CANSKATE RIBBON they may register for Canskate.
