About

This 8-week Learn to Skate session will be October 8 - November 26, 2024.  Classes are every Tuesday from 5:45-6:30pm each week. Registration is also available for additional instruction from 5:30-5:45 before class.


July 1 starts a new membership year - Be sure to purchase both your class and the Seasonal Membersip if you have not purchased either the Seasonal Membership or another GEFSC membership for the July 1, 2024 - June 30, 2025 membership year.


Class Levels:

Snowplow (Ages 3-5): It's all about fun!  Get your skater on the ice by introducing them to the basics.  Our snowplow levels (1-4) get them moving by allowing them to feel comfortable on the ice.

Basic Skills (Age 6+): Our basic skills classes get your skater comfortable with moving across the ice!  Upon completing the 6 levels your skater will master skills necessary to succeed in hockey or figure skating!


Pre-Free Skate/Free Skate:  This class is for skaters who have accomplished the Basic 1-6 curriculum.  This class will transition  your skater from the basic skills to the more advanced within the Learn to Skate structure.


Teen/Adult: This class is for teens and adults of all skating levels.


Class instruction is from 5:45-6:15 PM, followed by Practice Time for the remaining 15 minutes where skaters can practice their skills, participate in on-ice games, or receive additional 1-1 instruction through Booster Lessons (additional registration required for 1-1 Booster Lesson).


Booster Lessons:

These supplemental lessons provide one-on-one instruction to refine skills in your level for Snowplow Sam, Basic Skills, Pre-Freeskate, and Hockey Skills skaters. Booster Lessons will be on the ice with a member of our Learn to Skate staff on Tuesdays at either 5:30-5:45 PM or 6:15-6:30 PM. Purchase includes one 15-minute lesson at the date and time that you register for.


Booster Lesson Cancellation/Refund Policy: Booster Lesson can be rescheduled for another week with 48 hours advance notice. Refunds not available for cancellation or no show.


Specialty Class: Intro to Theatre on Ice:

This session's specialty class is Intro to Theatre on Ice! Specialty classes run for 6 weeks out of the 8-week Learn to Skate session (weeks 2-7) from 5:30-5:45 PM prior to regular classes. Skaters may register for one week at a time at a drop in rate, or register for all 6 weeks at a discounted price! Theatre on Ice is a division of skating that combines figure skating with elements of theatre and dance in a team setting. While this class is not intended to learn a program or prep for a performance, we will teach and develop introductory Theatre on Ice skills like group skating, footwork, and different types of skating movements. This class is a great fit for skaters in Basic 3 through Aspire 4 levels who want to have fun, learn about another side of skating, or may be interested in skating on a Theatre on Ice team in the future.


Important Notes:

  • Parent/chaperones may view class from the bleachers only.  Parents will not be permitted to sit in the players boxes.

  • GEFSC Learn to Skate is required to uphold all facility regulations.

  • Learn to Skate will be cancelled if EVSC school is cancelled. Due to sessions planned for the full year, there will be no make up dates or refunds.
