What does my skater do after LTS?

Other Helpful Tips
IceWorks Pro Shop carries all necessary skates, clothing & protective gear and expertly sharpens skates. A 10% discount will be honored for skate purchases with a Learn to Skate coupon.

Skates: Figure skates are recommended for the beginner skater since they lace up completely around the ankle and provide more support.

Dress in layers so you or your child can remove them as necessary. All skaters must wear gloves.

Feedback: Ask the coaches about the skater’s progress!
