STARskate

Skills, Tests, Achievement, Recognition – this is what STARSkate is all about!

STARSkate offers opportunities for skaters of all ages to develop fundamental

figure skating skills in the areas of ice dance, skating skills, free skate and

interpretive skating.

Unique in Canada, this program teaches figure skating skills in a group and/or

private lesson format in a progressive and sequential manner and includes

specifically designed awards and incentives. Skaters have the opportunity to

take Skate Canada

synchronized skating or pairs skating.
