Join our LEARN TO SKATE Program and Weekly Classes!

Are you ready to expose your young player to the world of Hockey? Fierce's Learn to Skate Program and Classes are a perfect place to start. Our LEARN TO SKATE Program and Classes are all about getting new skaters exposed to hockey, their equipment, the rink, and having fun! 

Program Highlights:

• Skilled and Fun Instructors
• Safe and Supportive Environment for Beginner Skaters
• Flexible Weekday Class Schedules
• 1:1 player-to-coach ratio to provide personalized instruction. However, actual ratios may vary based on participant skill levels and coach availability.

REQUIRED equipment for the class: CSA approved helmet with a cage, single blade hockey skates, mitts or hockey gloves to protect their hands. We recommend having players wear snow/ski/hockey pants, warm jacket that allows for movement.

*Parents & Caregivers of players: Fierce encourages parents & caregivers remain at the rink, but out of sight while their player is first on the ice. This allows the player to learn to skate independently, and to help build their confidence on the ice. You may re-join your player once they are happy on the ice. Our instructors are there to support them every step of the way!   

What to Expect in Our LEARN to SKATE Class:

• For new skaters - U3, U4, U5, U6, U7
• Balance & walking on the ice while using a skating aid
• Safely falling down and getting up on their own
• Transition to removal of skating aid
• One foot balance, shuffle steps, spins, and shaving the ice
• T-push, pushing friends on chairs, 2 foot glides, 1 foot glides, turning & C-cuts
• A lot of FUN & GAMES mixed with skill development!

Once our students have gotten the hang of things they can move into our LEARN TO PLAY HOCKEY Class/Program at the same time and on the same ice as our LEARN TO SKATE class.

You have two ways to register:

Drop-In – Register for a single class on a specific date

Monthly Bundle – Register for the same day each week (e.g. all Mondays in September) at a lower cost per class
