Introduction to Interpretive Skating
To supplement group instruction, each student has private or semi-private lessons with their designated coaching team.
Their coaching team guides their technique in jumping, spinning, stroking, dryland jumping and music program development. We encourage competitions, fun events and workshop opportunities throughout the year. It is at the Junior Gold Stars level where the passion of figure skating takes a new ownership!
When
Junior Gold Stars occurs each Saturday from 8:00-9:00 AM on-ice and 9:15-10:00 AM off-ice. It is a year-round program with full season registrations.
Pre-requisites
Skaters are auditioned or selected from our Little Gold Stars or Learn to Skate programs.
