Learn-to-Skate

The Learn-To-Skate program is offered to anyone 3 years old and up, including adults. Our skating instructors will develop skills in a safe and fun environment while following the guidelines of the Ice Skating Institute (ISI) for recreational and competitive skaters. An ISI membership for skaters is encouraged but not required.

Below you will find the schedule, breakdown of levels, class durations, fees, etc. Students looking for skating course credits should see the University's class listing for Kinesiology (The Learn-to-Skate Program does not offer classes for credit).

Registration for Winter and Spring 2010 classes will begin November 7 for Members/UI students and November 14 for Non-Members.
