CanSkate is a dynamic learn-to-skate program that focuses on fun, participation and basic skill development.
New for the 2020/2021 season is a CanSkate Parent & Tot session. Due to the Covid 19 restrictions any skater who is unable to skate on their own will require a parent to help them move around due to restrictions with social distancing. If your child is one who may need a little more assistance you can register for this class and still partake during our regular season. This will run during the same times as our regular CanSkate class.
