About Learn to Skate or "LTS":
If you are looking for beginner/new to Hockey skating classes for your child (ages 3-5 ) these classes are for you.
(NOTE: We are now offering 2 different Youth LTS classes. LTS Hockey which is designed for skaters in Hockey Skates who will eventually move into Jackson Youth Hockey, or our original youth LTS classes for the skaters who aren't sure their path in skating and are looking for classes that are fun/non -specific (so skaters will be in figure skates and hockey skates). If you want these classes are what you want click HERE)
Learn To Skate USA or "LTS" is a program designed with a specific Hockey Curriculum . LTS Hockey is for the new skater (in hockey skates) through the basic levels. We offer interactive fun group classes for new and returning basic level skaters. SCJH Learn to Skate after-school Hockey classes meet twice a week on Tuesdays & Thursdays (or you can do half tuition and pick either Tue or Thursday). These classes meet for a 30 min group class and 20 min monitored practice/open skate. During the open practice/open skate if your skater wishes to take a private lesson they may do so (please book and pay for your lesson's directly with SCJH staff). If your skater is unable to stand/skate please have them only come to the group class only not the practice time till they are able to do so. Once they learn how to stand and skate they are welcome to join the practice time. During the Tuesdays & Thursday classes your skater will not need a stick, so please leave it at home. Please review the FAQ for addition information regarding recommendation on clothing/gear!

Also note, If CDC/Town/school recommendation changes or our community's COVID positive cases increase we will revert back to our stricter COVID guidelines put into effect by SCJH and CMI, this will include wearing a mask at all times, as well as no spectators and more. Both the current and stricter policies are available HERE please review before registering.
