This Skate Canada learn-to-skate program is specially designed
for beginners who are 3-5 years of age.  
Fun and continuous
movement is the focus while learning basic skating skills such as
balance, skating forwards, backwards, and stopping.  Lessons
are led by NCCP certified professional coaches and assisted by
qualified Program Assistants. Progression to the CanSkate
program is encouraged on the Coach's recommendation.  
Helmets are
mandatory. Skate Canada and the
Niagara-on-the-Lake Skating Club recommend all Pre-School
participants wear a CSA approved
hockey helmet.
Pre-School & CanSkate Information


Parents/Guardians of Pre-School and CanSkate skaters must
remain at the arena during lesson time for their children's
safety and most of all your encouragement.  A large bulletin
board is at the information table every Pre-School and
Canskate session.  Please review the board weekly for
upcoming events, ice cancellations or changes. Make sure you
check the calendar given to you at registration for club
activities and other updates.
