Learn To Skate

Learning how to skate can be easy and fun! With a little bit of determination, technique, and some practice, we know you will get it! Whether you want to skate backwards, spin really fast, score a goal, or win a race, we have all the tips and tricks to help you succeed. Just like you, every champion started with a few easy lessons, so keep trying and you'll get better and better!

"We have a little secret to share: When you first start skating, you might fall—and that's okay! Even Olympic medalists have fallen countless times. The beauty of it all is that we learn from each fall, get back up, and come back stronger than ever."

Learn To Play

Our "Learn to Play" program provides beginners a unique opportunity to develop the essential hockey fundamentals, preparing our players for future competitive programs. The program aims to inspire youth and expand the hockey community by welcoming more families into the sport of hockey.

Revise: The value of learning to play hockey goes beyond skating and puck-handling skills. Its’ greatest value is the role it plays in the development of character and life skills such as RESPONSIBILITY, RESPECT, INTEGRITY, PERSEVERANCE and TEAMWORK. Learn to Play is the start of a new experience, extending further than the rink. It’s about falling down and getting up, making new friendships, mentors, skills, and most of all, creating fun memories that’ll last a lifetime.
