Pre-CanSkate - First Steps on the Ice!
The Pre-CanSkate program is the perfect introduction to skating for children ages 3 to 5. This shortened program helps little ones build confidence while learning how to stand up, balance, move forward, and glide in a fun, supportive environment.
Led by Skate Canada-certified coaches, sessions use toys, games, and music to create an engaging experience that makes learning to skate exciting.
Who it's for:
Ages 3 to 5, brand new to skating or still building confidence.
What they'll learn:
Balance, falling down and getting up, forward movement, and basic gliding.
Why it matters:
Creates a strong, positive foundation for progression into CanSkate.
As Pre-CanSkaters gain confidence and develop their skills mid-season, coaches may recommend moving them into the CanSkate program. When this happens, families are expected to register in CanSkate, and any unused Pre-CanSkate fees will be refunded.
