Canskate

A 50 minute lesson for skaters ages 6 to 12 where a complete series of balance, control and agility skills are taugh. We keep track of your childs progression through the badges and group them accordingly.

The sessions begin with a group warm up, followed by group instruction led by a NCCP train coach. Every lesson will finish with a cool down. Canskater's learn and practice new skills, and will be rewarded ribbons and badges when elements are mastered.

All participants must provide their own skates and hockey helmets. Please see the Equipment tab for details and videos regarding proper equipment.
