Summer On Ice 2010 Figure Skating Camp


Come and have a good time -- regardless of what level skater you are.

Programs include Public Sessions, adults-only Coffee Club, Freestyle and Power Skating. 

In addition, Skatetown offers a comprehensive Learn to Skate program which incorporates the I.S.I. structures and guidelines. These lessons are open to all ages and abilities and are designed so you can learn in a fun and relaxed manner.

Each Learn to Skate semester is three months long. At the end of each semester we offer testing for each skater to determine if they should be moved to the next class. The graduated stair step levels help the skater to master each new skill, and motivate him or her to accept the challenge of adding another new skill.

Private Lessons

Power Skating

Students in this program will need both the desire to learn and a willingness to work hard.  Power skating is both for figure skaters and hockey players.  It concentrates on speed in both directions, upper and lower body strength, stamina, endurance, forward and backwards technique, edge use and controlled turns, agility and flexibility. 

 

Sign up for a 13-week Power Skating session through Skating School (Saturdays from 10:15-10:45am) or pay $10 per class on a drop-in basis. 

 

Special Events

 

Ice Shows

Show off what you have learned in classes!  Skatetown ice shows are designed for everyone to have fun!  Parents and the entire community can get involved (building props, sets, sewing costumes etc.). 

 

All students participating in our Learn to Skate program are invited to perform with a group, or he/she might like to take a few private lessons and perform a solo to music.  Skatetown hosts an annual Holiday on Ice Spectacular as well as an Evening of Exhibitions in May. 

 

Competitions

 

The fun and excitement of I.S.I. competitions are available to skaters of all ages, from children to adults.  I.S.I. competitions are non-qualifying events, starting with the beginners' basic Alpha test and ranging up to the highest levels.

 

The 'team concept' for I.S.I. competitions was developed to encourage skaters of all levels of ability and achievement.  Skaters will eventually travel to other arenas and compete as a team.  Skaters receive a medal or trophy for an individual performance and Skatetown may receive a team trophy.

·         Parents are not allowed to “coach” from the doors of the ice or through the glass.

 

·         Skaters and coaches must be courteous and respectful at all times to other skaters and coaches. Many infractions do happen by accident and should be politely acknowledged as such.

         Skaters having a lesson have music priority, though no instructor may dominate the music.

 

·         No head phones are allowed on the ice.

 

·         Right-Of-Way:

o   Then to the skater taking a private lesson

o   Then to the skater practicing moves or dances with a specific pattern

 

·         Skaters must leave the ice in a timely manner at the end of the session, cleaning up after themselves and taking all personal items with them.

 

·         All coaches on the session are responsible for monitoring rules and safety, regardless of whether or not it is the skater’s own coach.
