Pre-Can and Parent 

New to skating? This is the program for you!

Our Pre-Can session is for skaters 3 years old and up with no skating experience. The objective of our Pre-Can Program is to get skaters comfortable on the ice. This program will teach basic skating skills through games and songs that will teach your child to stand, move forward, backward, jump, and turn.  

At this level children should be able to:

• Understand simple instructions and follow directions from a person other than their guardian

• Walk on the floor in their skates while maintaining straight ankles
