First Steps

For Young Beginners

The First Steps program introduces children ages 3 to 5 to skating in a fun, supportive group setting. Through games and guided activities, young skaters build confidence, coordination, and balance while learning essential on-ice skills, starting with how to fall, get up, and tie their skates. Designed to let each child progress at their own pace, the program lays the groundwork for lifelong enjoyment of skating and prepares them to advance into Basic Skills classes for figure or hockey skating.
