INTENSIVE COURSE
Learning a new skill is very rewarding, you keep fit & have Fun. Skating is a great organised sporting activity & you will make new friends too!
Check out our intensive skating course for beginners! This course lasts 5 weeks and will be taught by our Head Coach and British Medalist, Stuart Bell.
This course aims to get beginners to Level 4 standard within 5 weeks, and with a smaller class size, is great for having more space and tuition. Classes are both for adults & children from age 8 years of age. It is £200, and includes 5 x 1 hour free skates prior to each lesson - a great opportunity to practice what is taught the week before - and 5 x 1 hour lessons.
We will also have a pre-Skate from 5pm - 6pm for you to get some practice in before your lesson.
You will also be able to skate for only £5 on any of our public sessions whilst you are on the Intensive Course!
Spaces are limited, so get in touch now to book your spot! Dates & times to be confirmed shortly
All pupils must have the ability to skate around the rink unattended, before they sign up for any of the beginner classes.
Please note - all new skaters must have the ability to skate around the rink unaided before they sign up to beginner classes.
