StarSkate 1 is for skaters who
have passed at least the 3rd CanSkate level and wish to learn to figure skate
who have not passed any complete Preliminary level test. Private lesson are
highly recommended. To obtain a private coach for you or your child see
Coleen Matheson for a list of coaches.
StarSkate 2 consists of the
following levels in dance, skating skills and freeskating; Preliminary,
Junior Bronze, Senior Bronze, Junior Silver, Senior Silver, Gold and
Interpretive Freeskate levels; Introductory, Bronze, Silver and Gold. Skaters
must have passed at least one complete Preliminary test for this session. A
private coach is a must. If you don’t have a coach see Coleen Matheson and
she will arrange for you to have one.
Both StarSkate programs
welcome skaters of all ages who meet the requirements. Warm up sweaters
and/or jackets are a good idea as everyone feels cold when first stepping in
to our rink. One size fits all gloves are the best for freedom of movement
while keeping hands warm.
