For adult skaters who wish to continue a healthy, lifelong participation in the sport they love and learned at an earlier age. Participants may work on CanSkate, or STARSkate skills as desired; coaching is provided.

This AdultSkate group lesson typically includes a coach led group warm-up, followed by an open practice with the coach floating, providing instruction to those as requested. Under current AHS COVID restrictions:
  • ​At no point may a participant exceed a 3 (Moderate) rating during a low-intensity activity. This also means that no element, technique, or skating interval can be over a 3 rating
  • Masks must be worn by the participant at all times during low-intensity activity
  • 3 metres (9’) physical distance must be kept between all participants and coaches at all times (unless members
    of the same household)

​Due to COVID restrictions and guidelines, we are unable to offer the Pre-CanSkate level of the CanSkate program this session. All participants must be able to stand, move forward, and recover from a fall independently in order to stay within the 3-metre social distancing requirement. All participants must be 18 years of age or older.

ICE Aerobics is the practice of skills set to music of different tempos; so whether you are a beginner with a helmet or a gold test skater, you can be challenged and even learn all those crazy steps you see skaters do at the highest levels! 

Depending on skill level, you will need figure skates (preferably), a helmet if you are new to skating and haven’t taken figure skating lessons before, a pair of gloves and some warm flexible layers. Come see how fun it is. Our instructor has the best taste in music!

At the beginning of each week of skating, each athlete, coach and ice level volunteer will need to sign the Skate Canada Assumption of Risk and Waiver, which is presented when you register through Uplifter. Participants will not be permitted on the ice surface until this form is completed.

Prior to every session, a coach or volunteer will conduct a verbal health screening with all participants. Overall results of this screening will be recorded onto a Contract Tracing Log, which the LSC will keep on file for 4 weeks. If a skater, coach or volunteer answers YES to any of the questions, they will not be permitted on the ice and will be asked to go home and visit the AHS Online Health Assessment Tool. A copy of the screening questions will be provided to skaters prior to their first session.
