LEARN TO SKATE
Hockey Tots
The Hockey Skating curriculum, endorsed by USA Hockey, is structured to provide skaters with a strong foundation of skills that are essential for success in the game of hockey.
Throughout the program's four badge levels, skaters learn to develop the fundamental hockey stance, stride, knee bend, and other critical techniques to achieve success on the ice.
Future Chargers Pre-Hockey
Future Chargers Hockey is a Learn to Play Hockey program all about development so players can make a smooth transition into our spring house league hockey program. Players develop skating, stickhandling, passing, and shooting skills, while building confidence and making new friends.
Snowplow Sam
Snowplow Sam offers a safe and enjoyable introduction to ice skating for children aged five and younger through its four levels.
Designed to spark the joy of skating in young children, the program provides a supportive environment that helps children build a strong foundation in skating skills. Whether your child is a first-time skater or has some experience, a Snowplow Sam class is the perfect way to introduce them to the fun and excitement of ice skating.

Free Skate
The Free Skate program consists of three distinct skill sets: skating skills, spins, and jumps. The program offers a comprehensive training curriculum that challenges skaters to master new skills while also refining their existing ones.

Aspire is the bridge from Learn to Skate USA into U.S. Figure Skating — where skaters of all ages take their first steps into the world of figure skating. In a fun, supportive group environment, skaters develop proper technique, learn all single jumps and basic spin positions, and prepare for their first test: Pre-Preliminary Skating Skills.
Adult Classes
