Skating Instructors

In addition to group classes offered at our training rink, many skaters find it advantageous to advance their skills through private lessons. Private lessons offer one-on-one learning that is specific to a skater’s individual needs and open the door to activities such as competitions and exhibitions. All ages and levels benefit from private lessons, which will help the skater learn at an accelerated rate.
