All of our Learn to Skate USA classes are taught by certified instructors who share in the program's mission to provide a fun and positive experience that will instill a lifelong love of skating. Participants in Crystal Ice House’s Group Lessons must pay an annual LTS USA fee (renewed yearly in the summer Group session) that includes standardized curriculum founded in solid and enjoyable skill progression, secondary sports accident insurance, skill progression patches (Ice Explorers; SPS 1-4; Hockey 1-4; Basic 1-6; Pre-Free Skate - Free Skate 6), and more.​
Snowplow Sam (SPS 1-4)
Snowplow Sam 1-4 invites children age 6 and younger to learn the joys of ice skating in a safe, introductory setting. Young skaters will have fun while learning how to fall and get back up, how to march across the ice, and ultimately build confidence in themselves and their abilities. Hockey SPS and Figure SPS classes are divided into four progressive levels for kids with no prior skating experience, help preschool-age skaters develop the coordination and strength to move across the ice.
Basic 1-6
The Basic Skills curriculum is available to skaters age 7 and over who are taking their first steps on the ice. Instructors use engaging activities to teach the FUNdamentals of ice skating. The six progressive levels introduce forward and backward skating, stops, edges, crossovers and turns with agility, balance, coordination and speed as main focuses. Through these skills, skaters enter the first stage of skills to begin exploring the world of skating.
Free Skate 1-6
Each free skate level is comprised of a variety of progressive skating skills, transitions, spins and jumps — all of which build on the previous skill, providing skaters a strong foundation of all elements. These levels will be taught in a positive and interactive group format such as a bridge program, circuit classes or as an introductory training program. Instructors will focus on quality and mastery of skills.
