-ADULTS SKATE TOO!-
Ice skating is for the kid in all of us. Our adult curriculum is designed to help promote physical fitness, improve balance and coordination while teaching proper skating techniques. Our adult classes are designed for the Lower levels to the experienced adult skaters who wish to improve their skating skills. This is an exciting program for adults who look to skating as an enjoyable part of a fit and healthy lifestyle. Skaters meet twice a week for on ice multi-level group instruction. We will do our best to work with all levels of adult skaters, from the basics to those of you spinning/jumping.
-Adult Class Requirements-
(Four Skaters are needed in order to run Adult Group)
SKATING REQUIREMENTS: All skaters signing up for Adult Group Class must be able to skate forward, unassisted, without holding the wall and feel comfortable maneuvering in a group setting. Skaters should also be able to do a forward snowplow or hockey stop without help. Since the group class is a mixed level of adult skaters, the skating skills listed above is for your safety, and all other skaters. If your forward skating/stopping isn't where it needs to be, we encourage those skaters to get one on one lessons (on public or freestyle). Simply take a private lesson to get your forward skating/stopping comfortable and under-control. Here is a list of our coaching Staff. If you have any questions please reach out- skatingclubofjh@gmail.com
-On Your First Day-
Be on time! We operate out of The Snow King Event & Sports Center
1. Arrive a good 15 minutes before class kicks off to check in with Sandy Sandberg at the registration desk .
2. You will receive a name tag (yes a name tag, It's easier while we are getting to know you)
3. Lace up skates. Skates can be rented from the rink but rentals are not included in the group lesson pricing. Remember to only walk on protective surfaces, NEVER WALK ON CONCRETE with skates (unless the blades have hard guards). Used Skates can be purchased from the Clubs Skate Swap, or we are happy to guide you in the process of buying a new pair we can also help you get skates sharpened!
4. Adult skaters will meet off ice with their instructor - look for the matching color on the name tag to coaches binders. Adult Skaters will meet off-ice for the first few classes. Coaches will go over class procedures and new skater introductions. (This is also good time to meet and become acquainted with your new instructor and ask any questions you may have).
The People you will meet: Sandy Sandberg our program coordinator. Lacey Merrell our Skating Director & your group skating Instructors.

-ADULT CLASS FAQ-
Helmets and Head Protection prepare yourself for the expected and unexpected. We recommend all skaters who are newer to skating to wear a CSA approved helmet, until a comfortable balance is established. Nothing is to be worn underneath the helmet for proper fitting. Elbow pads/knee pads are encourage until you get your sea legs as well! Bring lots of layers. Comfort and moving freely about are essential for skaters. Choose sweatpants or warm-up pants (tighter fitting) instead of bulkier snow pants. Bring a jacket too, since indoor rinks do set thermostats at a brisk 50 degrees Fahrenheit. No heavy ski clothes as they prohibit movement and bending. Socks. Thin over thick. Bulkier, thicker socks limit support and movement and create unwanted bumps inside the boots. Go with lightweight socks or thinner tights. Gloves. Gloves are preferable to mittens as they provide articulation. Either way, mittens or gloves are suitable. Skates. Skates can be rented from the rink. Skate rental is not included in SCJH class registration. If you wish to buy check out our skate swap, or drop us a email and we will help guide you where to purchase! |
