CanSkate - Skate Canada's flagship Learn-to-skate program offers beginner and developing skaters fundamental skills in a fun environment with lots of great incentives. A great foundation for further development in Hockey, Figure Skating, Ringette or Speed Skating, this program for skaters aged 4 and up runs once a week in Fall or Winter blocks, with a variety of options for day of the week. CanSkate runs out of Holly, East Bayfield and Allandale arenas. We also offer one full year, twice a week CanSkate group at Allandale.

Pre-CanSkate - for our youngest beginner skaters, aged 2 - 4, the Pre-CanSkate program allows skaters to work through the levels of the CanSkate program, but with special methods and incentives designed for this younger age group. Pre-CanSkate is offered on weekday mornings and weekend mornings at Holly and East Bayfield. There is also a Pre-Can group that runs in conjunction with our Monday night CanSkate at Allandale.

Power Skating - is a program designed specifically for hockey and ringette players. Skaters will work on dynamic skating, edges, explosive starts and stops with drills designed to improve their game. Classes are completed in full hockey gear.
