This class is recommended for the under five year olds whose parents would like to introduce their toddlers to the ice. This class is a fun class supervised by fully qualified coaches and assisted by some of the more experienced skaters in the club. During the toddlers time in this class they will play games, play with various toys, which in turn allows them to gain confidence on the ice. Skaters lso have the opportunity of gaining four Snowtots penguin badges as seen below.  From this class the skaters can progress to take part in the SKATE UK classes and take part in the SKATE UK grade programme. Snowtots will have the opportunity to take part in our twice yearly Spiral, Spin and Jump Fun Day competition which takes place in late November early December and late April early May. Can I please emphasise that this is essentially a fun day and not a competition. Skates are available for all skaters at no extra cost.

Ice skating is a hugely popular activity that forms the basis of many winter sports you will see in next year's Winter Olympics, including figure skating, ice hockey and speed skating. Ice skating is an accessible and social pastime which offers a diverse range of health and fitness benefits. Whether you hope to improve balance, strengthen leg muscles or gain nimbler footwork, it could be time to get your skates on!

KYLE FSC CLUB SKATE UK CLASS DETAILS

Our Skate UK class is designed for skaters over the age of five years and is a fun experience. During the skaters tuition time in the Skate UK class they will be taught the grassroots levels of ice figure skating. Skaters will endeavour to attain eight grade badges, each badge level assisting the skater to become more proficient in the sport. During the class, which takes place between 11.15am and 12.15pm each Saturday, the skater will receive half an hour tuition from one of our NISA fully qualified coaches. They will then continue with half an hour practice time to allow them to perfect the skills previously taught. Skaters who have achieved the eight grade levels will then have the option to continue into the Star Class where they can achieve Bronze, Silver and Gold Star badges.

Skaters attending this class are also able to take part in our twice yearly Spiral, Spin and Jump fun competition. This fun competition normal takes place in late November early December and again in late April early May. I would stress that this not a competition as such but a fun day where everyone is a winner and everyone receives a trophy!!

it should be said that during the skaters time in the Skate UK programme they will have the opportunity to receive a private lesson from one of our three resident club coaches and become a full skating member of Kyle FSC.Cost: £34.00 for five week block of lessons.
